Casho has a bag that contains pineapple chews, lemon chews, and lime chews. She performs an experiment. Casho randomly removes a chew from the bag, records the result, and returns the chew to the bag. Casho performs the experiment 54 times. The results are shown below:

A pineapple chew was selected 9 times.
A lemon chew was selected 15 times.
A lime chew was selected 30 times.

Based on these results, express the probability that the next chew Casho removes from the bag will be pineapple chew as a percent to the nearest whole number.

Explanation:

pineapple chew 9/54

lemon chew 15/54

lime chew 30/54

9/54 = 0.1666666... make this a percent and you get 17% of the time Casho will pull out a pineapple chew.
