You can put this solution on YOUR website! Determine a minimum required sample size if you want to be 95% confident that the sample mean is within one unit of population mean given that population standard deviation is = 4.8.
--------
n = [zs/E]^2
----
n = [1.96*4.8/1]^2 = 88.5 = 89 when rounded up
