    1/10.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    There are 12 marbles in bag A and 15 in bag B.

    Prob (Selecting green from bag A) = 3/12 = 1/4.

    Prob (Selecting black from bag B) = 9/15 = 2/5.

    So the required probability = 1/4 * 2/5

    = 2/20

    = 1/10.

    Note that the probabilities are multiplied because the 2 events are independent.
