We want to use a confidence interval to estimate the proportion of students in the College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences that are female. What sample size would be necessary if we want to estimate the true proportion of female students correct to within 0.03 with probability 0.95? In an earlier small-scale pilot study, we obtained an estimate of the proportion of female students (p) that was equal to 0.48.
