qasim has a bag that contains pineapple chews, lemon chews, and lime chews. he performs an experiment. qasim randomly removes a chew from the bag, records the result, and returns the chew to the bag. qasim performs the experiment 52 times. the results are shown below:\na pineapple chew was selected 33 times.\na lemon chew was selected 9 times.\na lime chew was selected 10 times.\nbased on these results, express the probability that the next chew qasim removes from the bag will be lemon chew as a percent to the nearest whole number.

Answer

Explanation:

Step1: Recall probability formula

Probability = $\frac{\text{Number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total number of outcomes}}$

Step2: Identify values

Number of times lemon chew was selected (favorable outcomes) = 9. Total number of experiments (total outcomes) = 52.

Step3: Calculate probability

Probability of selecting lemon chew = $\frac{9}{52}$

Step4: Convert to percentage

$\frac{9}{52}\times100=\frac{900}{52}\approx 17.31$ Rounding to nearest whole - number gives 17.
