  1. IXIXIX

  2. CMIXIX

  3. CMXCIX

  4. CMIC

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:
The largest $3$ digit number is $999$. Let's convert that into Roman numerals.

$M = 1000, D = 500, C = 100, X = 10, V = 5$ and $I = 1.$

$900 = CM$

$90 = XC$

$9 = IX$

$900+90+9=999$
$(1000-100)+(100-10)+(10-1)$

Therefore, $999 = CMXCIX$
$(1000-100)+(100-10)+(10-1)$

Let's crossverify,
$CMXCIX=(1000-100)+(100-10)+(10-1)$
$=900+90+9=999$

roman numbers and numbers upto hundred roman numerals knowing our numbers maths

  1. XXXIX

  2. XXXXI

  3. XXXX

  4. None of these

Show answer
Correct Option: A
Explanation:
To convert $39$ to Roman Numerals we need to split it up into place values (ones, tens, hundreds, etc.), like this:

Place Value Number Roman Numeral
Tens            $30$ $XXX$
Ones               $9$ $IX$


Please note, we skipped place values that equal 0.

You then combine them all together (starting from the top) to get $XXXIX.$
So option A is the correct answer.

Roman numerals for $498$

roman numbers and numbers upto hundred roman numerals knowing our numbers maths

  1. CDCXVIII

  2. CDCXIV

  3. CDXCVIII

  4. CDXCVII

Show answer
Correct Option: C
Explanation:

The Roman numerals are represented by the following letters:

I = 1

V = 5

X = 10

L = 50

C = 100

D = 500

M = 1000

If a numeral is followed by another numeral of lower denomination, the two are added together;

if it is preceded by one of lower denomination, the smaller numeral is subtracted from the greater.

400 + 90 + 8 = CDXCVIII

$CDXCVIII=498$
