Solution :

$H_0: p = 0.5$

$H_a: p > 0.5$

Alpha, α = 0.01

The sample proportion is :

$p'=\frac{x}{n}$

   $=\frac{513}{806}$

   = 0.636

Test statistics, $z=\frac{p'-p}{\sqrt{\frac{pq}{n}}}$

$z=\frac{0.636-0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5\times 0.5}{806}}}$

$z=\frac{0.136}{0.0176}$

z = 7.727

The p value = 0.00001

Here we observe that p value is less than α, and so we reject the hypothesis H_0.

Therefore, there is sufficient evidence,
