Explanation:

Step1: Calculate total frequency

$3 + 3+4 + 11+12=33$

Step2: Calculate frequency of red, blue and purple

$3 + 3+12 = 18$

Step3: Calculate probability

Probability $=\frac{18}{33}\approx0.5454$

Step4: Convert to percentage

$0.5454\times100 = 54.54\%$
Rounding to nearest whole - number gives $55\%$

Answer:

$55\%$
