It depends on whose perspective you are looking at the Old Testament from.
The books missing from the KJV and the Hebrew Old Testament include Book of Jasher, Book of the Wars of the Lord, and Book of Songs. In addition, the Heather Bible has Acts of Solomon, Annals of King David and the Book of Samuel the Seer.
The Hebrew and Protestant Bibles also lack the Apocrypha, parts of which show up in different canons in the Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Syriac, and Ethiopian. Each of those four canons has different sets of Apocryphal books and each has books lacking in all three of the others, especially in the Ethiopian canon.
"B" may refer to "books" in the Old Testament, which consists of 39 books in Protestant Christian Bibles.

Catholics believe there are 46 books in the Old Testament and 27 in the New Testament. Most Protestant faiths claim there are only 39 inspired books in the Old Testament but agree that there are 27 in the New Testament. The extra seven books in the Catholic versions of the Bible are called the Deutero-canonicals and include the books of Tobit, Judith, Wisdom of Solomon, Sirach, Baruch, and 1st and 2nd Maccabees. Some Protestant versions of the Bible also include these seven books but they are not considered to be inspired by God and are generally called the Apocryphal Books.
The Bible has 66 books. 39 of which are in the Old Testament. That's roughly 59% of the Bible. The math above, while quick, is not entirely accurate. A number of books in the Old Testament such as Psalms and Jeremiah, are incredibly long. In fact, the nine longest books in the Bible are all in the Old Testament. Of the seven shortest books in the Bible, six are from the New Testament. Therefore, it is probably more accurate to say that 75% of the Bible's pages are Old Testament.
