In a game, William and Mary take turns choosing cards at random from a bag. Each card shows a “W” or “M”. A player chooses a card, records the letter, and puts the card in a discard pile.

Are the letters drawn independent or dependent events?

They are dependent events. Only if W and M put the cards back into the bag would they be independent.
