If Table D does not have the
degrees of freedom (df) you require, use a df as close as you can get
without going over. Which is to say, use a smaller df that is on the
table.
For example, if your n = 100, telling you that df = 99, but there is
no df = 99 on Table D, you have to make do with df = 80, the closest you can
get to 99 without going over. Do not use df = 100 even though that is
closer. Never use a df that is higher than what you actually possess.
