Answer:

1 or 100%

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the allele B (brown) is dominant over the allele b, crossing the father and the mother:

All the offspring would exhibit the dominant phenotype which is brown. Hence, the probability of the offspring having brown eyes is 100% or simply 1.
