Answer
A
Cassius stabs himself due to the information that Brutus has been killed; Brutus is killed by Octavius.
B
Cassius and Brutus are both killed by Octavius.
C
Cassius and Brutus are both killed by Mark Antony.
D
Cassius asks Pindarus to kill him with his own sword; Brutus runs onto his own sword, which is held by Strato.

Explanation

Cassius believes Titinius has been captured and that Brutus’s forces have been defeated, so he asks Pindarus to kill him with Cassius’s own sword. Later, Brutus chooses to die by running onto his sword, which Strato holds for him. Thus, the correct description is that Cassius asks Pindarus to kill him and Brutus runs onto his sword held by Strato.
