R help - Mar 2011 - Question about Chi-squared test

Hi all,

I know Chi-squared test can be done with the frequency data by R function
"chisq.test()", but I am not sure if it can be applied to the
percentage
data ? The example of my data is as follow:

#############################################

                          KSL   MHL   MWS   CLGC   LYGC
 independent (%) 96.22  92.18  68.54   93.80   85.74

#############################################


Thanks


Jeff

Surely, the source of this information must have included the N from  
which these proprtions arose?
