Solution

To ensure reproducibility in his experiment, Houtan should "Repeat using same method and equipment, then compare results to see if they are similar." This is because reproducibility requires that an experiment be repeated under the same conditions and methods to verify the results. Comparing results with other students or changing the method and equipment does not ensure reproducibility as it introduces new variables.
