    P (1 and 2 are green) = 3/25

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We need to know the total number of marbles

    6 Blue + 10 red + 9 green = 25 marbles

    P (1st marble is green) = green / total

    = 9/25

    Since we don't put it back, there are

    6 Blue + 10 red + 8 green = 24 marbles

    P (2st marble is green) = green / total

    = 8/24 = 1/3

    P (1 and 2 are green) = P (1st green) * P (2nd green)

    = 9/25 * 1/3

    = 3/25
