Answer

See explanation.

Work Step by Step

The field of a toroidal solenoid is uniform in magnitude and highly symmetrical, making it easy to calculate the magnitude of the field using Ampere’s Law. The uniform field exists within the loops themselves, which makes the total flux and thus the self-inductance easy to calculate.
