Correct answer: D

Every rectangle and every rhombus has four sides: both circles lie inside Quadrilaterals.
A square is both a rectangle and a rhombus, but most rectangles are not rhombuses and most rhombuses are not rectangles: the two circles overlap.
So two overlapping circles sit inside a larger circle.

Worth noting

Two separate circles inside a larger one forgets the square, which belongs to both classes.
