Sampling without replacement
first one is 6/20 probability red
second is 5/19 red
that product (they are multiplied) is 30/380 or 3/38=0.0789

The problem says sampling WITH replacement; the probability of red on each draw is 6/10 = 3/5.

P(red,red) = (3/5)(3/5) = 9/25

Convert to decimal or percent if required.
