Great Britain Has a Great Literary Tradition That Spans Centuries

question 57

Essay

Great Britain has a great literary tradition that spans centuries. One might assume, then, that Britons read more than citizens
of other countries. Some Canadians, however, feel that a higher percentage of Canadians than Britons read. A recent Gallup
Poll reported that 86% of 1004 randomly sampled Canadians read at least one book in the past year, compared to 81% of 1009
randomly sampled Britons. Do these results confirm a higher reading rate in Canada?
-Test an appropriate hypothesis and state your conclusions.
