Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

The culture might not be stained properly or the culture might be too old.

Therefore if a pure culture contains have both red and purple cocci that it can be concluded that the gram stating was not done properly like too much destaining was done or too much safranin was used or maybe the culture is too old so that cell wall of some bacteria degrades.
