Two balls are drawn from an urn containing $7$ white,$6$ red,and $8$ black balls one after the other without replacement. The probability that at least one of them is white is:

Of the three independent events $E_1, E_2$ and $E_3$,the probability that only $E_1$ occurs is $\alpha$,only $E_2$ occurs is $\beta$ and only $E_3$ occurs is $\gamma$. Let the probability $p$ that none of events $E_1, E_2$ or $E_3$ occurs satisfy the equations $(\alpha - 2\beta)p = \alpha\beta$ and $(\beta - 3\gamma)p = 2\beta\gamma$. All the given probabilities are assumed to lie in the interval $(0, 1)$. Then $\frac{\text{Probability of occurrence of } E_1}{\text{Probability of occurrence of } E_3} = $
