    15/20 or 3/4

    Step-by-step explanation:

    9 green marbles (GM) + 5 yellow marbles (YM) + 6 red marbles (RM) = 20 marbles total (TM)

    GM = 9/20

    YM = 5/20

    RM = 6/20

    TM = 20/20

    For the probability of choosing a GM or RM you just add their respective values:

    9/20 + 6/20 = 15/20

    Simplified this answer is 3/4
