What number does the Roman numeral XCIII represent?

Answer 1

93

Add up the component parts:

X = 10

C = 100

I = 1

As the X comes before the C it is subtracted: XC = 100 - 10 = 93

III = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3

→ XCIII = 90 + 3 = 93

Answer 2

C represents 100 and X represents 10. Since the X comes before the C you subtract it to give 93.
