Ryan has a bag that contains strawberry chews, cherry chews, and watermelon chews. He performs an experiment. Ryan randomly removes a chew from the bag, records the result, and returns the chew to the bag. Ryan performs the experiment 55 times. The results are shown below: A strawberry chew was selected 15 times. A cherry chew was selected 20 times. A watermelon chew was selected 20 times. Based on these results, express the probability that the next chew Ryan removes from the bag will be cherry or watermelon as a fraction in simplest form.

Oliver has a bag that contains pineapple chews, lemon chews, and peach chews. He performs an experiment. Oliver randomly removes a chew from the bag, records the result, and returns the chew to the bag. Oliver performs the experiment 23 times. The results are shown below: A pineapple chew was selected 17 times. A lemon chew was selected 4 times. A peach chew was selected 2 times. Based on these results, express the probability that the next chew Oliver removes from the bag will be peach chew as a percent to the nearest whole number.
