A Correct answer
Explanation

The error is in part (a). When determining who vs whom, look at the clause's structure. 'Who has broken the fan' is correct because 'who' is the subject of the verb 'has broken'. 'Whom' is used as an object, but here the pronoun acts as the subject within the dependent clause 'has broken the fan'.
