A researcher wishes to estimate the proportion of X-ray machines that malfunction. A random sample of 225 machines is taken, and 60 of the machines in the sample malfunction. Based upon this, compute a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of all X-ray machines that malfunction.   Carry the intermediate computations to at least three decimal places. Round the answers to two decimal places.   (a) What is the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval?   (b) What is the upper limit of the 95% confidence interval?
