    28/25

    Step-by-step explanation:

    There are a total of 15 marbles, 6 of which are red.

    The probability with replacement is:

    P = (6/15) (6/15) = 4/25

    The probability without replacement is:

    P = (6/15) (5/14) = 1/7

    The ratio is:

    (4/25) / (1/7)

    (4/25) * (7/1)

    28/25
