A box contains 24 marbles, some are green and other are blue. If a marble is drawn at random from the box, the porbability that it is green is 2/3. The number of blue balls in the box is

Let the number of green marble = x
Then, Probability of getting a green marble
= ^xc₁ / ²⁴c₁ = 2/3
⇒ x/24 = 2/3
⇒ x = 16
