Set a button group's width to 100% and make buttons equal width?
Bootstrap has the .btn-group-justified
css class.
How it's structured is based on the type of tags you use.
With <a>
tags
<div class="btn-group btn-group-justified" role="group" aria-label="...">
...
</div>
With <button>
tags
<div class="btn-group btn-group-justified" role="group" aria-label="...">
<div class="btn-group" role="group">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Left</button>
</div>
<div class="btn-group" role="group">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Middle</button>
</div>
<div class="btn-group" role="group">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default">Right</button>
</div>
</div>
There's no need for extra css the .btn-group-justified
class does this.
You have to add this to the parent element and then wrap each btn element in a div with .btn-group like this
<div class="form-group">
<div class="btn-group btn-group-justified">
<div class="btn-group">
<button type="submit" id="like" class="btn btn-lg btn-success ">Like</button>
</div>
<div class="btn-group">
<button type="submit" id="nope" class="btn btn-lg btn-danger ">Nope</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>

The problem is that there is no width set on the buttons. Try this:
.btn {width:20%;}
EDIT:
By default the buttons take an auto width of its text length plus some padding, so I guess for your example it is probably more like 14.5% for 5 buttons (to compensate for the padding).
Note:
If you don't want to try and compensate for padding you can use box-sizing:border-box;
