The correct answer is C – Ask the team to restate the requirements and review them with the client.
Clear communication and shared understanding are core Agile values. The best way to resolve confusion is through direct collaboration. Restating and reviewing requirements with the client fosters alignment and transparency, which reduces rework and frustration.
From the PMI Agile Practice Guide:
“Agile encourages frequent interaction with stakeholders to clarify requirements and reduce misunderstanding. Requirements are best elaborated through collaboration.”
(PMI Agile Practice Guide, Section 5.3 – Backlog Refinement)
Mike Griffiths supports:
“User stories and acceptance criteria should be understood by both team and stakeholders. If confusion arises, revisit and clarify together.”
(Mike Griffiths, PMI-ACP Exam Prep Book, Chapter 5 – Adaptive Planning)

A may boost morale but doesn’t resolve the confusion.
