First you have to figure out the blood types of the parents...

The man is AB - it tells you that.

The woman is more complicated - all it tells you is that is type B. Meaning she could have two B alleles. Or she could have only one B allele and the allele on the other chromosme could be an O. So for her genotype could be either BB or BO.

Meaning you will have to do two Punnett Squares AB x BB and AB x BO - reflecting the two possible genotypes of the mother. Good luck.
