Answer:\frac{17}{35}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The bag contains 6 orange and 9 lime sweets

For both sweets of the same flavor, Jodi must either choose orange or lime

No. of ways it can be done is ^6C_1\times^5C_1+^9C_1\times^8C_1

The total no of ways of selecting two sweets out of 15 is ^{15}C_1\times^{14}C_1

The probability that both sweets are the same flavor

P=\dfrac{^6C_1\times^5C_1+^9C_1\times^8C_1}{^{15}C_1\times^{14}C_1}=\frac{102}{210}=\frac{51}{105}=\frac{17}{35}
