What is the test statistic for the following problem? Thanks in advance

A retailer receives shipments of batteries in packages of 50. The retailer
randomly samples 400 packages and tests to see if the batteries are
defective. A sample of 400 packages revealed the observed frequencies
shown to the right. The retailer would like to know if it can evaluate this
sampling plan using a binomial distribution with n = 50 and p = 0.02. Test
at the x = 0.01 level of significance.
