The probability of choosing a red marble on the first draw is 3/10, as there are 3 red marbles out of a total of 10 marbles.

Since the marbles are replaced after each draw, the probability of choosing a white marble on the second draw is 4/10, as there are still 4 white marbles out of a total of 10 marbles (one of which is now white from the first draw).

Therefore, the overall probability of choosing a red marble followed by a white marble if the marbles are replaced is:

(3/10) * (4/10) = 12/100 = 3/25

So the probability of choosing a red marble, then a white marble if the marbles are replaced is 3/25.
