    Answer: option 1

    Step-by-step explanation: By constructing a 99% confidence interval for population proportion, it implies that the principal is 99% sure that the confidence interval will contain the population proportion.

    When we construct confidence interval, we do so to show that the population parameter that we are looking for is present in the interval at a specified confidence level.
