Solution :

To determine the direction of car F with respect to car C, we need to analyze the information given in the statements.

The question asks: At which direction is car F parked with respect to car C?

Let's evaluate the statements:

From Statement I:
1. Car A is parked in the north of car B.
2. Car B is parked in the south of car C (this means C is in the north of B).
3. Car E is parked in the east of car C.

From Statement II:
1. Car D is parked in the south-west of car A.
2. Car A is parked in the north-west of car G.
3. Car F is in the north-east of car E.

From Statement III:
1. Car G is parked in the north of car E.
2. Car G is parked to the west of car F (this means F is to the east of G).
3. Car C is parked in the south of car A.

Combining Statement I and Statement III:
- From Statement I: Car E is parked to the east of car C.
- From Statement III: Car G is parked in the north of car E.
- Since E is east of C, and G is north of E, G is to the north-east of C.
- From Statement III: Car F is to the east of car G (or G is to the west of F).
- Since G is north of E, and E is east of C, G is north-east of C. Because F is directly east of G, F will also be in the north-east direction with respect to C.
Therefore, statements I and III together are sufficient to determine the direction of car F with respect to car C.

Thus, the correct option is: If the data in statement I and III together are sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II are not required to answer the question.
