Quick explanation
The state flag of Saxony-Anhalt is yellow and black.
Why is this correct?
The state flag is yellow at the top and black at the bottom, with the state coat of arms in the centre.
Background
Besides the federal flag, every federal state has its own flag. The state flag is yellow at the top and black at the bottom, with the state coat of arms in the centre. The state flag flies, for example, at the state parliament, ministries and on public buildings on holidays. The coat of arms of Saxony-Anhalt shows black and gold stripes with a green crown of rue at the top and a black bear on a red wall below – the Anhalt bear.
Why are the other answers wrong?
The other colour combinations do not belong to Saxony-Anhalt: blue, white and red is the flag of Schleswig-Holstein; green, white and red is the flag of North Rhine-Westphalia; white and red is the flag of Berlin, Hamburg, Thuringia.
