You will need to compute the mean and standard deviation. Once you have those values, you can compute the rest using formulas.
a) standard error of the mean = sd/√n
Note: sd = standard deviation; n = sample size
b) Margin of error = 1.96(sd/√n)
Note: 1.96 represents 95% using a z-table
c) CI95 = mean ± 1.96(sd/√n)
I'll let you take it from here.
