A=Male B=Blue eyes
If two events cannot happen at the same moment, they are discontinuous or mutually exclusive.
Because events A and B cannot both occur in this situation, it follows that there are no men with blue eyes, and we must therefore insert 0 in the column "Male" and the row "Blue" of the provided table. The row/column totals may then be used to calculate the remaining counts.
 MaleFemaleTotalBlue0100=1010Brown200=203010=2040Total203050
 MaleFemaleTotalBlue01010Brown202040Total203050
