A researcher wanted to estimate the proportion of undergraduate college students (18–29 years) with access, so she randomly sampled 189 undergraduates and found that 164 had access. Estimate the true proportion with 90% confidence. Round intermediate answers to five decimal places. Round your final answer to one decimal place.
