Answer:

Probability of not drawing a green marble is 19/23.

Step-by-step explanation:

A jar is containing 7 red, 3 white, and 9 blue marbles.

Then the probability to draw a green marble will be = Numbers of green marbles/ Total numbers of marbles of all colors

P(G) = 4/(7 + 4 + 3 + 9)

P(G) = 4/23

Now the probability of not drawing a green marble = 1 - probability of drawing a green ball

P = 1 - 4/23 = 19/23

Therefore answer is 19/23.
