You are the same person who did the "10 boys and girls in line"?

The same thing happens here- if x of the seven balls is red and the drawing of samples is "with replacement", then the probability any one draw is red is x/7. If the drawing is "without replacement" then the probability depends on the previous history. The "a-priori" probability without that information is still x/7.
