Lamonte has a bag that contains apple chews.strawberry chews, and Jime chews. He performs an experiment. Lamonte randomly removes a chew from the bag, records the result, and returns the chew to the bag. Lamonte performs the experiment 34 times. The results are shown below: An apple chew was selected 13 times. A strawberry chew was selected 6 times. A lime chew was selected 15 times. Based on these results , express the probability that the next chew Lamonte removes from the bag will be apple chew as a percent to the nearest whole number.

To find the probability that the next chew Lamonte removes from the bag will be an apple chew, we need to calculate the experimental probability based on the results of the experiment.<br /><br />The experimental probability is calculated by dividing the number of times an apple chew was selected by the total number of trials (34).<br /><br />Experimental probability = (Number of times an apple chew was selected) / (Total number of trials)<br /><br />Experimental probability = 13 / 34<br /><br />To express this probability as a percent, we multiply it by 100 and round to the nearest whole number.<br /><br />Probability as a percent = (Experimental probability) * 100<br /><br />Probability as a percent = (13 / 34) * 100 ≈ 38.24%<br /><br />Rounding to the nearest whole number, the probability that the next chew Lamonte removes from the bag will be an apple chew is approximately 38%.
