Rashaad has a bag that contains apple chews, strawberry chews, and watermelon chews. He performs an experiment. Rashaad randomly removes a chew from the bag, records the result, and returns the chew to the bag. Rashaad performs the experiment 24 times. The results are shown below:

An apple chew was selected 11 times.
A strawberry chew was selected 5 times.
A watermelon chew was selected 8 times.

Based on these results, express the probability that the next chew Rashaad removes from the bag will be watermelon chew as a fraction in simplest form.
