One card is drawn at random from a well shuffled deck of $52$ cards. In which of the following cases are the events $E$ and $F$ independent ?
$\mathrm{E}:$ ' the card drawn is black '
$\mathrm{F}:$ ' the card drawn is a king '

In a deck of $52$ cards, $26$ cards are black and $4$ cards are kings.
$\therefore $ $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{E})=\mathrm{P}$ (the card drawn is a black ) $=\frac{26}{52}=\frac{1}{2}$
$\therefore $ $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{F})=\mathrm{P}$ (the card drawn is a king ) $=\frac{4}{52}=\frac{1}{13}$
In the pack of $52$ cards, $2$ cards are black as well as kings.
$\therefore $ $\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{EF})=\mathrm{P}$ (the card drawn is black king ) $=\frac{2}{52}=\frac{1}{26}$
$\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{E}) \times \mathrm{P}(\mathrm{F})=\frac{1}{2} \cdot \frac{1}{13}=\frac{1}{26}=\mathrm{P}(\mathrm{EF})$
Therefore, the given events $\mathrm{E}$ and $\mathrm{F}$ are independent.

A box of oranges is inspected by examining three randomly selected oranges drawn without replacement. If all the three oranges are good, the box is approved for sale, otherwise, it is rejected. Find the probability that a box containing $15$ oranges out of which $12$ are good and $3$ are bad ones will be approved for sale.

Two dice are thrown independently. Let $A$ be the event that the number appeared on the $1^{\text {st }}$ die is less than the number appeared on the $2^{\text {nd }}$ die, $B$ be the event that the number appeared on the $1^{\text {st }}$ die is even and that on the second die is odd, and $C$ be the event that the number appeared on the $1^{\text {st }}$ die is odd and that on the $2^{\text {nd }}$ is even. Then
