From a large number of actuarial exam scores, a random sample of 275 scores is selected, and it is found that 206 of these 275 are passing scores. Based on this sample, find a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all scores that are passing. Then complete the table below. 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 90% confidence interval?   (b)  What is the upper limit of the 90% confidence interval?
