Liam has a bag that contains pineapple chews, cherry chews, and lime chews. He
performs an experiment. Liam randomly removes a chew from the bag, records the
result, and returns the chew to the bag. Liam performs the experiment 62 times. The
results are shown below:
A pineapple chew was selected 58 times. Based on these results, express the probability that the next chew Liam removes from the bag will be cherry chew as a decimal to the nearest hundredth
A cherry chew was selected 2 times.
A lime chew was selected 2 times.
Based on these results, express the probability that the next chew Liam removes from
the bag will be cherry chew as a decimal to the nearest hundredth

Sagot :

The probability that the next chew Liam removes from the bag will be a cherry chew is 0.03.

What is probability?

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

We have:

Liam performs the experiment 62 times

Total number of outcomes = 62

A pineapple chew was selected 58 times.

A cherry chew was selected 2 times.

A lime chew was selected 2 times.

Now, the probability that the next chew Liam removes from the bag will be cherry chew:

P = 2/62

P = 1/31

P = 0.0322  or 0.03

Thus, the probability that the next chew Liam removes from the bag will be a cherry chew is 0.03.
