Probability - word art

Hi today we have been doing word art related to word art and my word art looks like this

we had to write down as much probability as we could, if you don't know what probability is it is well let me show you
here's a scale 0-----0/5-----1 so the zero is impossible and 1 is certain and the 0/5 is equal so technically in between those is the words that are used in my word art for example: If i had a bag of lollies and the colours are 2 greens, 1 blue, 4 purples and 1 yellow and if i grab one what's the chance of me getting a yellow well that's 1/8 because you just count all the lollies together then count the possible answer like, if i had 1 yellow then i would put on the numerator 1 and the denominator is 8 so that would be 1/8.

Here's some for you...
I have a bag of marbles their colours are 1 white, 1 green and 4 blues, what is the probability of getting a 
1. green?
2. blue?
3. red? (if you don't know this one move on)

what is the probability of NOT getting a
1. blue?
2. white?
3. purple?
