\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "From the first sentence of the condition, the number of yellow peppers is \"3%2F4\" of 20, which is 15.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "So, the number of orange peppers is  20-15 = 5.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "The probability under the question is then  \"%285%2F20%29%2A%284%2F19%29\" = \"%281%2F4%29%2A%284%2F19%29\" = \"1%2F19\".     ANSWER\r\n" );
