shawn has a bag containing seven balls: one green, one orange, one blue, one yellow, one purple, one white, and one red. All balls are equally are equally likely to be chosen. Shawn will choose one ball without looking in the bag. What is the possibility that Shawn will choose the purple ball out of the bag?
