Can someone write me an explanation for this PLZZZZZZZZZZZ

A bag contains 25 marbles of the same size that are yellow, green, and purple. The probability of picking a yellow marble is 20%. The probability of picking a green marble is 50%. Determine the probability of picking a purple marble from the bag and then classify the probability of picking a purple marble as likely or not likely to occur. (5 points)

Answer:

The probability of picking a purple marble would be 30% because 50% (probability of green) - 20% (probability of yellow) = 30% (probability of purple).

Explanation:

It wouldn't be that likely because the probability of picking a green marble is greater than that of both the purple and the yellow marble.
