The answer is C.

The figures in your problem are inconsistent with the data. 
The sample std deviation is not and cannot be .04 (4%). 
the sample std dev is sqrt[(.47)(1-.47)/400]=.02495. 
The margin of error from your CI is .474 -.47= .004 (very small). 
This would represent .02495/.004= 6.24 std dev. from expected, which would have a very 
high level of confidence (99.97.. %). Something is likely wrong with the figures in your problem.
