The total number of marbles in the jar is 5 + 8 + 4 + 3 = 20.
The probability of picking a blue or purple marble can be calculated as the number of blue and purple marbles divided by the total number of marbles:
P(blue or purple) = (5 + 3) / 20 = 8 / 20 = 2 / 5
Therefore, the probability of picking a blue or purple marble is 2/5.
