✰✰ ANSWER ✰✰

$⇢Red\:Balls=5$

$⇢Green\:Balls=4$

$⇢Yellow\:Balls=6$

$⇢Total\:Balls=15$

$⇢Total\:Balls-Yellow\:Balls$

$⇢15-6$

$⇢Not\:Yellow\:Balls=9$

$⇢Probability=\dfrac{No.\:of\:fav\:Outcomes}{Total\:no.\:of\:Outcomes}$

$⇢Probability=\cancel\dfrac{9}{15}$

☛$Probability=\large{\boxed{\bold{\bold{\purple{\sf{\dfrac{3}{5}}}}}}}$
