Remove administrator status from account

I have two accounts on my Mac that have administrator status. I never intended this, and I'd like to change one of them to a normal account without deleting it. How can I do this?

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 12.3

With the undesired account logged out, uncheck the box allowing that user to administer the Mac from the other admin account in Users & Groups system preferences.
