The correct answer is: His approval rating is almost certainly between 72 and 78.Explanation: The margin of error of plus or minus 3 means that the true approval rating of the politician is likely to be within 3 percentage points of the reported 75 percent. Therefore, the approval rating is almost certainly between 72 percent (75 - 3) and 78 percent (75 + 3).
