Ho: all the proportions are equal
Ha: at least one of the proportions is not equal to the others
----------------
I ran a Chi-Sq on the data with the following results:
Test statistic: Chi-Sq = 1.21136
p-value: 0.8762..
df=(2-1)(5-1) = 4
======================
Conclusion: Since p-value is greater than alpha, Fail to reject Ho
His answers follow a uniform distribution.
