You can put this solution on YOUR website! In a sample of 60 mice, a biologist found that 46% were able to run a maze in 30 seconds or less. Find the 90% limit for the population proportion of mice who can run that maze in 30 seconds or less?

I assume you want a 90% Confidence Interval.
------
p-hat = 0.46
ME = 1.645*sqrt[0.46*0.54/60] = 0.1058
------
90% CI: 0.46-0.1058 < p < 0.46+0.1058
