So for this I did a simple picture of putting 5 indistinct things into 3 indistinct boxes. Ways to put objects
5 - 0 - 0
4 - 1 - 0
3 - 2 - 0
3 - 1 - 1
2 - 2 - 1
I didn't label the boxes because they are indistinguishable and therefore something like 2,2,1 is the same as 1,2,2.
Counting them up I got an answer of 5 ways.
