Answer:

[tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

probability (P) is calculated as

P = [tex]\frac{favourableoutcome}{numberofpossibleoutcomes}[/tex]

Here favourable outcome is a purple brick

number of possible outcomes = 6 + 5 + 4 = 15

P(purple brick ) = [tex]\frac{6}{15}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{5}[/tex]
