    6/25

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Total marbles in Bag A = 6 blue + 4 green = 10 marbles.

    Total marbles in Bag B = 2 blue + 3 green = 5 marbles.

    P (Green marble is drawn from Bag A) = Green Marbles/Total Marbles = 4/10.

    P (Green marble is drawn from Bag B) = Green Marbles/Total Marbles = 3/5.

    Assuming that both the above probabilities are independent, therefore:

    P (Both marbles are green) = 4/10 * 3/5 = 12/50 = 6/25.

    Hence, the probability is 6/25!
