Math Problem Statement
A human resource manager is trying to reduce the percentage of employees resigning at the organisation's two factories in Brisbane and Christchurch. She implements an employee loyalty scheme at the Christchurch factory in which employees receive a financial bonus for staying at the factory for over five years. Over the next 12-month period, 12 out of 345 employees resign at the Christchurch factory, compared to 32 out of 890 employees in Brisbane. Calculate the value of the test statistic used to test whether the percentage of employees resigning in Christchurch is lower than that of Brisbane (round your final answer to one decimal place). Assume population 1 = Brisbane factory and population 2 = Christchurch factory.
