Solution

The possible outcomes of $7$ different coloured bottles are {red, blue, green, pink, yellow, purple, orange}. Therefore, the number of possible outcomes are $7$ .

Now, no possible outcome of getting a brown coloured bottle because there is no brown coloured bottle, which means the number of favourable outcome is $0$ .

Therefore, probability $P$ of getting a brown coloured bottle is:

$P = \frac{0}{7} = 0$

Hence, the probability of getting a brown coloured bottle is $0$ .
