Default contingency tables

I would really appreciate help on this. Thankyou

A random survey of 100 students (60 boys/40 girls) asked each student to select the most preferred form of recreational activity from 5 choices. Test whether the choice is independent of the gender of the respondent. Approximate the p-value of the test. Would we reject at \alpha=0.05?

Recreational Choice
Basketball (Total=30): Male=21, Female=9
Baseball (Total=8): Male=5, Female=3
Swimming (Total=10): Male=9, Female=1
Running (Total=27): Male=12, Female=15
Tennis (Total=25): Male=13, Female=12

Thankyou!!
