Correct answer: C
Statements: All doctors are honest → Doctors ⊂ Honest All honest are fair → Honest ⊂ Fair So, diagrammatically: Doctors ⊂ Honest ⊂ Fair From this: I. Some honest are doctors → ✅ (True, as all doctors are part of honest.)
II. No honest is doctor → ❌ (False, opposite of statement I.)
III. Some fair are doctors → ✅ (True, since all doctors are within fair.)
