Answer: 0.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The following can be gotten from the question given:

Sample proportion - margin of error = 0.37

Sample proportion + margin of error = 0.43

Therefore, the sample proportion will.be the average of the values given above and this will be:

= (0.37 + 0.43)/2

= 0.80/2

= 0.40
