    The probability would be 49/100.

    Since you put the ball back before drawing a second time, the events are independent.

    The chances of not drawing a winning ball the first time is 7/10. The probability of not drawing a winning ball the second time would also be 7/10. The total probability would be

    7/10 (7/10) = 49/100.
