    P (red) = 1/5 [that says "probability of getting red is one fifth"

    P (green) = 1/5

    P (blue) = 1/5

    P (yellow) = 1/5

    P (purple) = 1/5

    The reason the fractions are all the same is that there are equal numbers of each color. For example, if there were 7 marbles of each color, there would be a total of 35 marbles.

    P (red) = 7/35 = 1/5

    Similar for the other colors.
