Answer:

45%

Explanation:

Counting the marbles, there are 5 green, 6 blue and 9 red.

Which means the odds of drawing a red to a non red are 11:9

In fraction form that would be 9 marbles out of 20 are red. 9/20

Since the fraction cannot be simplified, we can go to decimal form.

9/20=.45

.45=45%

The answer is 45%.
