Wyatt has a bag that contains pineapple chews, cherry chews, and lime chews. He performs an experiment. Wyatt randomly removes a
chew from the bag, records the result, and returns the chew to the bag. Wyatt performs the experiment 33 times. The results are shown below: A pineapple chew was selected 23 times. A cherry chew was selected 6 times. A lime chew was selected 4 times. Based on these results, express the probability that the next chew Wyatt removes from the bag will be lime chew as a percent to the nearest whole number.
The possibility Wyatt has of getting a lime chew would be 12% because his chance would be according to his experiments would be 4/33, which means that the percentage of Wyatt getting the lime chew would be 12.1212% (which the neares whole number percentage would be 12%).
Probability of event A ( Tesha will not be picked as a guide ) : P ( A ) = Number of ways it can happen / Total number of outcomes P ( A ) = (29 - 2) / 29 = 27 / 29 ≈ 0.93 Answer: The probability that Tesha will not be picked as a guide is 0.93 or 93 %.
