Given, Total marbles in the bag = 20

The number of red marbles = 8.

Now let's assume the number of green marbles = x.

The sum of red and green marbles is equal to the total number of marbles = 8 + x 

According to the question:

8 + x = 20

=> x = 20 - 8

=> x = 12

Thus, the number of green marbles = 12
