Why each option

Microsoft 365 licenses can be assigned to users through both the Azure Active Directory admin center and the Microsoft 365 admin center.

AAzure Active Directory admin centerCorrect

The Azure Active Directory admin center (now Microsoft Entra admin center) provides license management capabilities under Users, allowing administrators to assign, modify, and remove Microsoft 365 licenses directly from the directory service level.

BMicrosoft Compliance Manager

Microsoft Compliance Manager is used to assess and manage compliance posture and regulatory requirements, not for assigning user licenses.

CMicrosoft 365 admin centerCorrect

The Microsoft 365 admin center is the primary administrative portal for managing Microsoft 365 tenants, including a dedicated license assignment interface under Users > Active users where administrators can assign product licenses to individual or multiple users.

DSecurity & Compliance Center

The Security & Compliance Center is focused on managing security policies, threat protection, data loss prevention, and compliance features, and does not provide license assignment functionality.
