To find the winning coalitions, we need to consider all possible combinations of the players that can reach a total of at least 20 votes, which is the minimum required to win. 
The winning coalitions are: 
1. {38} (this is the grand coalition, where all players vote together) 
2. {38, 20} 
3. {38, 15, 5} 
Thus, there are three winning coalitions, and the answer is C) 3.
