RED marbles

I think you left out a word in your question. Did you mean, "What is the probablility of getting two RED marbles?
You have a 100% probability of getting a red marble from the first bag and a 3/5 probability of getting a red marble from the second bag. Since you will only get red marbles from the first bag, your probability of getting two red marbles is the same as getting a red marble from the second bag, or 3/5.

If you take out two marbles, the odds of getting two marbles is 100% ! :)

It is 100% probable that you will pull two marbles. I don't think that you worded the question correctly. =[
