dCannot be determined
AnswerUPSC’s answer is (a).
C wears the tie by clue 2, so the sweater is on A or B. Clue 1 says B did not wear the white sweater, and the sweater is the white garment, so B has the jacket and A has the sweater. Check: A is then Kumar, who is ruled out of the jacket by clue 4, which fits. So A wore the sweater.
Why each option is right or wrong
(a) Right: A wears the white sweater.
(b) B is excluded from the white sweater and wears the jacket.
(c) C wears the tie.
(d) Clues 1 and 2 together place the sweater on A.
