Question

A small company decides to offer a new online shopping feature. The company’s president wants to offer a free gift card to customers who make a $200 minimum purchase online. These customers can choose any one of three different gift cards of equal value. A month after starting this promotion, it is found that 40 customers selected a restaurant gift card, 29 of them selected a grocery store gift card, and 33 of them selected a movie theater gift card. Using a significance level of 0.05, test the claim that the three gift cards being offered in this promotion are equally popular.
