Two buckets each have four balls; two red balls and two white balls in the first, and two red balls and two blue balls in the second. At first, a bucket is selected, then a ball in the bucket is selected, with both buckets and balls inside the selected bucket having equal probability of being chosen. Then, without replacement of the first ball, the process is repeated once more. Determine the probability that the first ball drawn being red if the second ball drawn was blue.

Kritesh manages traffic on a $45 \times 45$ grid consisting of 2025 unit squares. Within each unit square is a car, facing either up, down, left, or right. If the square in front of a car in the direction it is facing is empty, it can choose to move forward. Each car wishes to exit the $45 \times 45$ grid.
Kritesh realizes that it may not always be possible for all the cars to leave the grid. Therefore, before the process begins, he will remove $k$ cars from the $45 \times 45$ grid in such a way that it becomes possible for all the remaining cars to eventually exit the grid.
What is the minimum value of $k$ that guarantees that Kritesh's job is possible?
