How to test goodness of fit in part c?

Question:

In an ecological study of the feeding behavior of birds, the number of hops between flights was counted for several birds. For the following data, (a) fit a geometric distribution, (c) examine goodness of fit. (d) If a uniform prior is used for p, what is the posterior distribution and what are the posterior mean and standard deviation?
Number of Hops       Frequency
1                                       48
2                                       31
3                                       20
4                                        9
