Given:

there are 6 red marbles 3 blue marbles and 6 green marbles in the Box

So, the total marbles = 6 + 3 + 6 = 15

The probability of drawing a red marble = 6/15

After drawing the red, the remaining marbles = 14

The probability of drawing a green marble = 6/14

So, the probability of drawing a red marble and then a green marble without replacing the first marble =

$(6)/(15)\cdot(6)/(14)=(6)/(35)=0.171$

So, the answer will be 0.171
