Each boy and each girl was presented __________ sweets.
Answer: B
The answer is with: Each boy and each girl was presented with sweets.
The verb present takes two patterns: present something to someone, or present someone with something. Here the subject of the passive sentence is the people who received the gift (each boy and each girl), so the thing given must follow with.
To would be right only if the sweets were the subject: Sweets were presented to each boy and each girl. Away belongs with give away, not present, and the sentence cannot do without a preposition, so 'no preposition needed' is wrong.
