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.​

Answer:

The probability that the next chew Jamar removes from the bag will be an apple chew is:

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

P(apple) = 53 / 59

P(apple) ≈ 0.90

Rounded to the nearest hundredth, the probability that the next chew Jamar removes from the bag will be an apple chew is 0.90.
