Assuming your choices are T. H. Green, Jeremy Bentham, and Auguste Comte, the correct answer is the final person - Auguste Comte.
Auguste Comte was a French philosopher most known for his theory of positivism, which he formulated in the 19th century. It has to do with the fact that knowledge depends on natural phenomena around us. Green is associated with social liberalism, and Bentham with utilitarianism.
