Hypothesis Testing

How do I start this question with no N value.

Conduct a hypothesis test at the 1% significance level to investigate whether the proportion of households in Ilkley buying more wholemeal bread than white bread differs from the national proportion of 11%.

State your hypotheses clearly and interpret your conclusion in context. question with no N value?

Was that the whole question?

wait the whole question is:

(a) Freya and Alex, are investigating the proportion, p, of households in Ilkley that buy
more wholemeal bread than white bread.
A national report says that 11% of the households in the country buy more
wholemeal bread than white bread.
Freya and Alex survey 35 households in Ilkley and find that 10 of them buy more
wholemeal than white bread.
Alex says that this shows that p is approximately 29%.
Explain why Alex’s statement may not be correct.


(b) Conduct a hypothesis test at the 1% significance level to investigate whether the
proportion of households in Ilkley buying more wholemeal bread than white bread
differs from the national proportion of 11%.
State your hypotheses clearly and interpret your conclusion in context.
