A spinner is divided into five colored sections that are not of equal size: red, blue, green, yellow, and purple. The spinner is spun several times, and the results are recorded below:

Spinner Results
Color Frequency
Red 17
Blue 20
Green 14
Yellow 11
Purple 11
Based on these results, express the probability that the next spin will land on yellow as a decimal to the nearest hundredth.
