document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Since the events A and B are independent,  P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B).\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "In other words,  0.12 = 0.24*P(B).\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "It gives  P(B) =  =  = 0.5 = 50%.    ANSWER\r\n" );
