Question

Choose the correct equivalent of 93 from the given pairs:

• A. CIII
• B. XCIII
• C. CXII
• D. CXIII

Answer 1

The correct option is B

XCIII

$\begin{array}{cccccccc}Roman& I& V& X& L& C& D& M\\ \text{Hindu-Arabic}& 1& 5& 10& 50& 100& 500& 1000\end{array}$
According to Roman number rules if the letter with small value comes on the left side we have to subtract.
So we can write 90 = 100 - 10 = XC
93 = 90+3
= XCIII
