    You have 7 blue tickets and 21 total.

    So the odds of pulling a blue ticket is 7

    21

    If you replace the ticket, the total number of tickets changes, so the total is 20 tickets.

    The odds of pulling a purple ticket is 10

    20

    So the odds that you pull a blue, replace it, then pull a purple is:

    7 * 10 = 70 = 1

    21 20 420 6

    so your answer is 1/6 or D
