Answer:

The correct answer is D) 68%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, we first need to calculate out the probability of it raining and they win. We can do this by multiplying the two probabilities together,

80% * 60% = 48%

Next, we need to calculate the probability of it not raining and them winning.

50% * 40% = 20%

Now we can add the two percentages together.

48% + 20% = 68%
