Answer:

50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Type A blood and type B blood are both dominant over type O blood.

A B

O AO BO

O AO BO

As is demonstrated by the Punnett square, the children's genotypes will either be AO or BO. Since type O blood is recessive, no child will have O blood, as other dominant alleles are present. 50% will have type A blood and 50% will have type B blood.
