Question: A social scientist wants to determine whether the marital status (divorced or not divorced) of US. men is independent of their religious affiliation (or lack thereof). A sample of 500 US. men is surveyed and the results tabulated below (here, A, B, C and D represent religions):
| Observed | A | B | C | D | None | Total |
| Divorced | 39 | 19 | 12 | 28 | 18 | 116 |
| Never Divorced | 172 | 61 | 44 | 70 | 37 | 384 |
| Total | 211 | 80 | 56 | 98 | 55 | 500 |
At the α = .01 of significance, test to see whether there is sufficient evidence to indicate that the marital status of men who have been or are currently married is dependent on religious affiliation.
