It is given that in a box containing 15 oranges, 12 are good and 3 are bad.
Now let, the events that the first, second, and third drawn orange is good be represented by `A,B` and `C` respectively.
Now, as given, there are `12` good oranges in the box.
So, the probability that the first drawn orange is good is,
`P(A)=12/15`
Also given that the oranges are not replaced.
So, the probability of getting the second orange good is,
`P(B)=11/15`
