Total marbles = 4 + 2 + 5 + 2 = 13

total number of ways to choose 8 marbles out of 13 = 13C8 = 13! / (8! * (13 - 8)!) = 1287

total green marbles = 2

total non-green marbles = 13 - 2 = 11

P(at least one green) = 1 - P(no green)

                                   = 1 - (11C8 / 13C8)

                                   = 1 - (165 / 1287)

                                   = 1122 / 1287

                                   = 34 / 39
