Two events $A$ and $B$ are independent, and
$$\mathrm { P } ( A \cup B ) = \frac { 1 } { 2 } , \quad \mathrm { P } ( A \mid B ) = \frac { 3 } { 8 }$$
What is the value of $\mathrm { P } \left( A \cap B ^ { C } \right)$? (where $B ^ { C }$ is the complement of $B$) [3 points]
(1) $\frac { 1 } { 10 }$
