Answer
The correct options are
Option A: LXVI
Option C: LXXXVIII - XXII
To determine why these options equal 66, let's break down the Roman numerals:
First, 66 can be written as: $$ 66 = 60 + 6 = LX + VI = \textbf{LXVI} $$
Examining Option C:
- LXXXVIII translates to: $$ 50 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 5 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 88 $$
- XXII translates to: $$ 10 + 10 + 1 + 1 = 22 $$
Therefore, $$ 88 - 22 = 66 $$
Let's also verify the incorrect options for clarity:
-
XLIX + XVI:
- XLIX translates to: $$ 50 - 10 + 10 - 1 = 49 $$
- XVI translates to: $$ 10 + 5 + 1 = 16 $$
Therefore, $$ 49 + 16 = 65 $$
-
LXIV:
- LXIV translates to: $$ 50 + 10 + 5 - 1 = 64 $$
Thus, the options that equal 66 are Option A (LXVI) and Option C (LXXXVIII - XXII).
