Suppose that 192 out of a random sample of 275 letters mailed in the United States were delivered the day after they were mailed. Based on this, compute a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all letters mailed in the United States that were delivered a day after they were mailed. Then find the lower limit and upper limit of the 90% confidence interval. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round your answers to two decimal places. Lower limit? Upper limit?
