Um I know that there are 15!/5!5!5! combinations but i'm kinda stumped after that.
I tried doing the space thing and i got 11 choose 5 squared after my answer.
I don't really know what to do.

Arrange the red and green balls first, which can be done in $ {10choose 5} $ ways. The blue balls can then only be placed one at either end of the row, or in a space between two of the red and green balls. There are thus exactly 11 places where they can be put, and this can be done in $ {11choose 5} $ ways. Therefore, there are $ {10choose 5}{11choose 5} $ ways of arranging the balls so that no two blue ones lie next to each other.
