The Correct Option is D

To write the expression 100 ÷ 20 = 5 in Roman numerals, follow these steps to convert each number accurately. The result will be represented using Roman numeral symbols.

Step-by-Step Process:

1. Convert 100 to Roman Numerals: The Roman numeral for 100 is C. This is a single letter representing 100 in the Roman system.
2. Convert 20 to Roman Numerals: The Roman numeral for 20 is XX. This is formed by combining two X’s, where X represents 10 (10 + 10 = 20).
3. Convert 5 to Roman Numerals: The Roman numeral for 5 is V. This is a basic unit in the Roman numeral system.
4. Combine the Expression: Keep the division symbol (÷) as is, since Roman numerals do not have a specific symbol for division. Thus, the expression 100 ÷ 20 = 5 becomes C/XX = V.
