Formula & Methodology
The Z Formula Proportion is calculated using the following formula:
Z = (Y – X) / √(X * (1 – X) * (1 – Y))
Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the methodology:
- Subtract X from Y.
- Divide the result by the square root of the product of X, (1 – X), and (1 – Y).
Real-World Examples
Example 1: Marketing Campaigns
Suppose you have two marketing campaigns, X and Y, with conversion rates of 0.2 and 0.3 respectively. You want to know the proportion of Y that is better than X.
Using the calculator, you’ll find that Z = (0.3 – 0.2) / √(0.2 * (1 – 0.2) * (1 – 0.3)) ≈ 0.52.
