Let x = number of green marbles
\n" ); document.write( "probability of selecting green marble = \"%283+%2B+x%29%2F%2815+%2B+x%29+=+2%2F5\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"15+%2B+5x+=+30+%2B+2x\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"3x+=+15\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"x+=+5\"
\n" ); document.write( "Answer: \"highlight%285%29\"
