A sample of 1545 men and an independent sample of 1691 women were used to compare the amount of housework done by men and women in dual-earner marriages. The study showed that 67.5% of the men felt that the division of housework was fair and 60.8% of the women felt the division of housework was fair. Is the proportion of men who felt that division of housework was fair greater than the proportion of women who felt the division of housework was fair? Use alpha = .05 for the test.
