Use the theoretical probability formula to solve the problem. Express the probability as a fraction reduced to lowest terms.

This problem deals with eye color, an inherited trait. For purposes of this problem, assume that only two eye colors are possible, brown and blue. We use b to represent a blue eye gene and B a brown eye gene. If any B genes are present, the person will have brown eyes. The table shows the four possibilities for the children of two Bb (brown-eyed) parents, where each parent has one of each eye color gene.

Second Parent
B b
First Parent B BB Bb
b Bb bb

Find the probability that these parents give birth to a child who has blue eyes.
