Calculate Margin of Error.

As you have said, this question is for beginners. It would have taken a long time to solve this question, if the critical value would not have been given.

The formula for calculating the Margin of Error is as follows:

The margin of Error = Critical Value x Standard Deviation

Here, Critical Value = 1.532 and Standard Deviation = 0.5.

Therefore, Margin of Error = 1.532 x 0.5

Margin of Error = 0.766
