You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2 sample proportion test with z=(p hat 1=p hat 2)/sqrt((p1-(1-p1)/n1+p2(1-p2)/n2)
critical value |z|>1.96
Note-on a calculator, one has to figure the numerator from the percentage and use an integer value.
z=-2.30
reject Ho. There is a significant difference.
p-value is 0.021
