i am working on a set of data and I am confused with the use of Chi square table. I get two values in R, one is chi square value and another is p value. Which one should I compare with the table? I have gone through a lot of notes on the web but each of them say a different thing. At 0.05 significance level which value should I compare and then what is the role of the other value in that regard? For e.g. If chi square value is to be tallied with the table value at 0.05 level of significance and the table value is less, then the result is significant or not, and then what is the use of the p-value written besides it.

Guidance will be highly appreciated.
