Solution

The correct option is B $X C V I I$
97 can be written as:

97 = 90 + 7 = (100-10) + 5 + 1 + 1

We already know,

Roman numeral for 100 is ‘ $C$ ’,

Roman numeral for 10 is ‘ $X$ ’,

Roman numeral for 5 is ‘ $V$ ’,

Roman numeral for 1 is ‘ $I$ ’,

$97 = (C - X) + V + I + I$

Roman numeral for 97 will be: $X C V I I$

So, ‘b’ is the correct option.
