Question 5

XLVI + LXX   =     ______

A. CXIV
B. CXVI
C. XCIV
D. XCVI

SOLUTION

Solution : B

Let us first convert the Roman numerals into Hindu-Arabic numerals.

When a Roman numeral with the larger value is on the left, we add the values together and when it is on the left, we subtract the values.

XLVI = (50 - 10 ) + 5 + 1
             = 56 - 10
             = 46
LXX = 50 + 10 + 10
        = 70

XLVI + LXX = 46 + 70 = 116

But, 116 = 100 + 16 = C + XVI = CXVI.

 XLVI + LXX = CXVI
