    MM'Ss or MMSs are the possible genotype of Hermione's parents.

    Explanation:

    Muggles have a gene for magic but not expressed in them, S represents silencing, s is no silencing).

    If Hermione's genotype is MMss or MM'ss

    then Hermione's parents would have Ss (but did not express S in Hermione and parents were heterozygous)

    Hermione's parents could have M' M alleles but M' could or could not have appear in this case

    so parents genotype are

    MM'Ss or MMSs

    It can be checked by crossing the possible genotype of parents

    M M' s S

    M MM MM' s ss Ss thus Hermione has this possible combination

    M MM MM' S Ss SS as MMss, MM'ss
