First, we have the probability of drawing a green marble as 6 out of (6+9), which is 615.
After that, we replace the green marble into the bag. At this moment, the bag becomes the same as it is before a green marble is drawn, i.e. there are still 6 green marbles and 9 red ones.
If we are too draw another green marble, the same probability, 615, will be resulted.
As both requirements have to be fulfilled, the required probability is the multiplication of both,
=615615
=36225
=425
