Common Questions

What formula does the Confidence Interval Calculator use?

Margin of error = critical value × standard error, where standard error = sample standard deviation / ?(n). Interval = mean ± margin of error.

Inputs

  • Sample mean
  • Sample standard deviation
  • Sample size
  • Confidence level
  • Interval method

Outputs

  • Margin of error
  • Lower bound
  • Upper bound
  • Critical value
  • Standard error
  • Assumption

Formula

Margin of error = critical value × standard error, where standard error = sample standard deviation / sqrt(n). Interval = mean ± margin of error.
