A clinical trial is conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of a new drug to treat severe asthma. A total of n=300 patients agree to participate and are randomly assigned to receive either the new drug or a placebo and followed for 6 months. Among 150 patients receiving the new drug, 98 suffered no asthma attacks in the last 3 months of the study, and among 150 patients receiving the placebo, 74 suffered no asthma attacks in the last 3 months of the study. Construct a 99% confidence interval for the difference in proportions of patients who experienced no asthma attacks. Can you solve this question with EXCEL, if so please provide details.
