Jamar has a bag that contains apple chews, lemon chews, and peach chews. He performs an experiment. Jamar randomly removes a chew from the bag, records the result, and returns the chew to the bag. Jamar performs the experiment 59 times. The results are shown below:

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.
