With the first problem, ever marble that goes into the bag, eventually comes out. So when time goes to infinity, you will eventually take out every single marble, thus there will be no marbles in the bag.
With the second problem, you only remove certain marbles, and an infinite number of particular marbles (like number 2,3,4,22, etc.) will always be in the bag, thus when time goes to infinity, there will be an infinite number of marbles in the bag.
