The answer 0.12 represents **the portion of the books in the library that are how-to books on electronics**.

This is calculated by taking 0.3 (the fraction of how-to books in the library) and multiplying it by 0.4 (the fraction of how-to books that deal with electronics), resulting in 0.12 or 12% of all the books in the library being how-to books on electronics.
