I = 1
V = 5
X = 10
L = 50
C = 100
D = 500
M = 1000
So, the smallest number
which can be formed using
all the above roman
numerals is MCDXLIV = 1444.
5. (B) Total number of sweets
distributed = 2961
Number of sweets each child

6. (B) Let the two digit number
of 10x + y
Reversing the digit, number
become 10y + x.
Sum = 10 x + y + 10y + x
⇒11x + 11y = 110
⇒ x + y = 10 ... (1)
x – y = 4 (Given) ... (2)
From equ. (1) (2)
2x = 14 ⇒ x = 7
