The fraction of the remaining marbles in the bag will be blue is 6/17.
The first step is to determine the initial number of marbles in the bag:
Initial number of red marbles in the bag : (5/8) x 240 = 150
Initial number of blue marbles in the bag : (2/8) x 240 = 60
Initial number of green marbles in the bag : 240 - 150 - 60 = 30
Number of red marbles remaining after 1/3 is removed = (1 - 1/3) x 150
2/3 x 150 = 100
Number of green marbles remaining after 2/3 is removed = (1 - 2/3) x 30
1/3 x 30 = 10
Total number of marbles now in the bag : 100 + 10 + 60 = 170
Fraction of blue marbles = 60 / 170 = 6/17
