Question

Corey has a bag that contains pineapple chews, strawberry chews, and lime chews. He performs an experiment. Corey randomly removes a chew from the bag, records the result, and returns the chew to the bag. Corey performs the experiment 41 times. The results are shown below:
A pineapple chew was selected 31 times.
A strawberry chew was selected 4 times.
A lime chew was selected 6 times.

Based on these results, express the probability that the next chew Corey removes from the bag will be strawberry chew as a fraction in simplest form.

Answer 1

The experimental probability = (number of strawberries)/(total trials) = 4/41. So the probability is 4/41.
