The gym teacher is 90% confident that the mean number of pushups the students can do in one minute is between 24.1 to 28.5

The confidence interval is given by:

Confidence interval = mean ± margin of error.

Given that the interval is 24.1 to 28.5, hence:

The gym teacher is 90% confident that the mean number of pushups the students can do in one minute is between 24.1 to 28.5

The length of the interval would increase if the confidence level were increased to 99%.
