Explanation / Answer

The lower the humidity, the less water is condensing on clothes and the greater the net transfer of water to the air is.Temperature plays a role in how fast this process is, but you can have warm weather even when the humidity is high.

In   d option we see that the temperature is high, relative humidity low.So that would be the answer.
