Explanation:

The Allied strategy in World War II was to first defeat Germany in Europe. This involved operations in North - Africa, Italy, and the invasion of France (D - Day). After Germany's defeat, the focus shifted to Japan. The Soviet Union also played a crucial role in the European theater against Germany.

Answer:

They planned to defeat Germany before moving on to the Soviet Union and then focus on the Pacific. They planned to retake France from Germany together, invade Africa from Italy, and then defeat Japan. They planned to retake North Africa to invade through Italy, invade France from Britain and Germany from the Soviet Union, and then combine forces to defeat Japan. (The most accurate description among the options is usually the one that emphasizes the "Europe - First" strategy, which is to defeat Germany in Europe before turning full attention to Japan. However, the options provided seem to have some inaccuracies or unclear phrasings. In a more standard sense, the Allies planned to defeat Germany in Europe first through operations like the North - African campaign, the Italian campaign, and the D - Day invasion of France, and then focus on Japan.)
