The correct Answer is:
To convert the number 38 into Roman numerals, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand Roman Numerals**: First, we need to know the Roman numeral symbols for the numbers we will use: - I = 1 - V = 5 - X = 10 - L = 50 - C = 100 - D = 500 - M = 1000 2. **Break Down the Number**: We need to break down the number 38 into parts that can be represented by Roman numerals. - 38 can be broken down as 30 + 5 + 3. 3. **Convert Each Part**: - For 30: We can use the symbol X (which represents 10). Since we can use X three times, we write it as XXX. - For 5: The Roman numeral for 5 is V. - For 3: We can use the symbol I (which represents 1) three times, so we write it as III. 4. **Combine the Roman Numerals**: Now, we combine all the parts together: - 30 (XXX) + 5 (V) + 3 (III) = XXX + V + III. 5. **Final Answer**: Therefore, when we combine them, we get: - 38 in Roman numerals is **XXXVIII**.
