Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. IV + X = ? Which number replaces the question mark to make the question correct?

Answer: 14

X is the roman numeral for 10. V is the symbol for 5 and I is equal to 1. When a lower value is placed in front of a larger value then the lower value is subtracted from the higher value. Therefore, IV is the equal of V - I or four.

To complete the equation, 4 + 10 = 14.

2. L / ? = X Which number replaces the question mark to make the question correct?

Answer: 5

L is the roman numeral for 50. X is the roman numeral for 10. 50 / 5 = 10.

3. C - IX + VII = ? Which number replaces the question mark to make the question correct?

Answer: 98

C = 100. IX = 9. VII = 7.
100 - 9 + 7 = 98

4. (M * VI) / III = ? Which number replaces the question mark to make the question correct?

Answer: 2000

M = 1000. VI = 6. III = 3.
1000 * 6 = 6000.
6000 / 3 = 2000.

5. Which of these is the correct formation of roman numerals to create the number 421?

Answer: CDXXI

C=100, D=500, X=10 and I=1. CD=400.
The other answers equal CDXIX = 419, CDXI = 411 and CDII = 402.

6. (M + L) + (C * C) = ? Which number replaces the question mark to make the question correct?

Answer: 11050

M = 1000. L = 50. C = 100.
1000 + 50 = 1050.
100 * 100 = 10000.
1050 + 10000 = 11050.

7. (M - C) * L = ? Which number replaces the question mark to make the question correct?

Answer: 45000

M = 1000. C = 100. L = 50.
1000 - 100 = 900.
900 * 50 = 45000.

8. XLII + VII * VII = ? Which number replaces the question mark to make the question correct?

Answer: 91

XLII = 42. VII = 7.
7 * 7 = 49.
42 + 49 = 91.

9. LXXI * ? = DCXXXIX Which number replaces the question mark to make the question correct?

Answer: 9

LXXI = 71. DCXXXIX = 639.
71 * ? = 639.
639 / 71 = 9

10. (XIX * IV) / VIII = ? Which number replaces the question mark to make the question correct?

Answer: 9.5

XIX = 19. IV = 4. VIII = 8.
19 * 4 = 76.
76 / 8 = 9.5.
