An apple chew was selected 53 times.
A lemon chew was selected 3 times.
A peach chew was selected 3 times.

Based on these results, express the probability that the next chew Jamar removes from the bag will be apple chew as a decimal to the nearest hundredth.

Answer 1

Answer:P(apple) ≈ 0.90

Explanation:

P(apple) = number of times an apple chew was selected / total number of experiments

P(apple) = 53 / 59

P(apple) ≈ 0.90

Answer 2
