C)binomial distribution.
D)uniform distribution.

The normal distribution approximation can be used to approximate the binomial distribution under certain conditions, such as large sample sizes and rare events. This makes it the most appropriate choice for computing probabilities for proportion or percentage intervals. The Poisson distribution and hypergeometric distribution do not have the same conditions for approximation with the normal distribution, therefore they are not the best choices. The uniform distribution is a continuous distribution and is not relevant for computing probabilities for proportion or percentage intervals.
