The probability of drawing a green marble will be 5/19, then for a red marble it will be 4/18 because there are less marbles in the bag. Also the probability of drawing a green or red marble the second draw will be the same probability.  Hope this helps!
Total number of marbles = 5 + 10 + 4 = 19

Number of green marbles = 5
Number of red marbles = 4

P(Green, then red) = (4/19)(5/18) = 5/28

Answer: 5/28
