Total number of marbles $=10+20+30=60$

Number of ways of drawing $5$ marbles from $60$ marbles $=^{60} C_{5}$

Number of ways in which the drawn marbles is not green ${ = ^{(20 + 10)}}{C_5}{ = ^{30}}{C_5}$

$\therefore$ Probability that no marble is green $=\frac{^{30} C_{5}}{^{60} C_{5}}$

$\therefore$ Probability that at least one marble is green $1 - \frac{{^{30}{C_5}}}{{^{60}{C_5}}}$
