To solve this problem, we need to find Roman numerals that multiply to 35. Roman numerals are combinations of the letters I, V, X, L, C, D, and M, which represent the numbers 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, 500, and 1000, respectively.

Solution By Steps

Step 1: Identify possible Roman numerals

The Roman numerals that could potentially multiply to 35 are those that are factors of 35. The factors of 35 are 1, 5, 7, and 35.

Step 2: Match factors with Roman numerals

From the list of factors, the Roman numerals that match are I (1), V (5), and potentially XXXV (35). However, XXXV is not a standard Roman numeral representation for 35 (the correct representation is XXXV).

Step 3: Determine the multiplication combination

To get 35 by multiplying Roman numerals, we can use I (1) and V (5) as they are the only Roman numerals that are factors of 35. Multiplying these two gives us 1 * 5 = 5.

Step 4: Consider the next factor

The next factor of 35 is 7, but there is no Roman numeral that directly represents 7. However, we can represent 7 as VII.

Step 5: Combine the Roman numerals

To achieve the multiplication of 35, we can multiply VII (7) by V (5). This gives us 7 * 5 = 35.

Final Answer

The Roman numerals VII and V multiply to 35.
