and 50% they would be carriers-CF is an autosomal recessive disease. If you have 2 carries with genotype lets say Rr x Rr (r being the recessive gene for cystic fibrosis) - you have 25% chance to get a child with cystic fibrosis or probability of 0.25-25%, or 1/4 (assuming it is a recessive trait.If it is dominate, then 75%,......

25% they definitely would, 25% they would not, and 50% they would be carriers
