Workers in several industries were surveyed to determine the proportion of workers who feel their industry is understaffed. In the government sector, 37% of the respondents said they were understaffed, in the health care sector 33% said they were understaffed, and in the education sector 28% said they were understaffed. Suppose that 200 workers were surveyed in each industry.  Construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of workers in each of these industries who feel their industry is understaffed!
