Since you are replacing the marble before the second draw, we don’t have to figure out the various changes in odds for the different possible first draws. It’s just that simple.
There are 5 white marbles
There are 4 red marbles

5/20*4/20=1/4*1/5=1/20 or 1/2
By coincidence, the same as the chance of drawing the white marble in one draw.
