    The only manually set routes are the 2 static routes, so the error should be there – Direct routes are discovered by data link protocols.

    Its not A as we have direct routes
    Its not B as the subnet is “correct” on the 2 static routes
    Its not C the question is traffic from PC1 to PC2 NOT back

    That leaves D and PC1 has DG 10.1.10.1 but router has IP 10.1.10.254

    Start at the question… Why does traffic from PC1 fail to reach PC2? Begin with traffic originating at pc1, where does this traffic go? To the router/ gateway which has an interface ip of 10.1.10.254. PC1’s gateway is 10.1.10.1 therefore it does not even reach the gateway in the first place, never mind routes back etc. Therefore answer is D, don’t even look further as you stop at the first problem identified.
