(D) Let $T$ be the event that India wins the toss and $V$ be the event that India wins the match.Given:$P(T) = 3/4$$P(T^c) = 1 - 3/4 = 1/4$$P(V|T) = 4/5$$P(V|T^c) = 1/2$Using the Law of Total Probability:$P(V) = P(T) 	imes P(V|T) + P(T^c) 	imes P(V|T^c)$$P(V) = (3/4 	imes 4/5) + (1/4 	imes 1/2)$$P(V) = 12/20 + 1/8 = 3/5 + 1/8$$P(V) = (24 + 5) / 40 = 29/40$Therefore,the chance of India's victory is $29/40$.
