We may write these numbers as given below:
(i) 2 = II
(ii) 8 = (5 + 3) = VIII
(iii) 14 = (10 + 4) = XIV
(iv) 29 = ( 10 + 10 + 9 ) = XXIX
(v) 36 = (10 + 10 + 10 + 6) = XXXVI
(vi) 43 = (50 - 10) + 3 = XLIII
(vii) 54 = (50 + 4) = LIV
(viii) 61= (50 + 10 + 1) = LXI
(ix) 73 = ( 50 + 10 + 10 + 3) = LXXIII
(x) 81 = (50 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 1) = LXXXI
(xi) 91 =(100 - 10) + 1 = XCI
(xii) 95 = (100 - 10) + 5 = XCV
(xiii) 99 = (100 - 10) + 9 = XCIX
(xiv) 105 = (100 + 5) = CV
(xv) 114 = (100 + 10) + 4 = CXIV
