I know how to construct a confidence interval for a percentage when
there is a binomial (# of good units / # of total units) distribution.
How is the C.I. constructed if I have data such as the % of a liquid
evaporated for each of a number of batches and I want to know let's
say the limits of 99% of the population of the batches? Each batch
has a %, say x kg out of y kg. I don't think a kg can be considered a
"unit" (or can it?)
