Answer:

35/132.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 12 balls. So:

Prob(First is green) = 5/12.

After the first selection there are 11 balls left.

Prob(The second is red) = 7/11.

The required probability = 5/12 * 7/11

= 35/132.

Note: the probabilities are multiplied because the 2 events are independent.
