We have {observer (a)} standing next to the train tracks
observing from outside the train.
We also have {observer (b)}that is sitting in the front of the train.
The train is moving at 0.5c with reference to {observer (a)}
Inside the train, a light is turned on at the back of the train.
(lightsource D)
If it travels to the front of the train and hits {observer (b)}
so...

What speed would the light be doing when it hit the front
of the train according to {observer (a)}?
and..
What speed would the light be doing according to {observer (b)}
How can both be measuring this light to be c?
Please show the math that will show that both (a) and (b) would
measure c for the light if you prefer to use math at all.

The equivalent experiment has been done; both
observers see the speed of light as c.

Bull***.
For one to see c, the other would see a violation of c.

So, observer (a) sees the speed of the light as

(0.5c + c)/(1 + 0.5c*c/c^2) = 1.5c/1.5 = c

Then observer (b) will say the light hit him at 0.5c
if (a) only sees c.
LOL

Were you expecting anything different?

Yup,
a person with a non brainwashed brain to answer.
but of course I did not get such..
