Final answer:
Based on the numbers and the rules of Roman numerals, the correct arrangement of 100 (C), 4 (IV), 1 (I), and 50 (L) does not create a word that matches any of the given options. Therefore, there may either be an error in the question or the given options.
Step-by-step explanation:
The student is asked to create a word by stringing together Roman numerals that represent the numbers 100, 4, 1, and 50. To answer this, we must convert each number into its Roman numeral equivalent and then place them in the correct order that follows standard Roman numeral rules. The Roman numerals for 100 is C, for 4 is IV, for 1 is I, and for 50 is L. When constructing Roman numerals, smaller numbers placed before larger ones indicate subtraction, while smaller numbers placed after larger ones indicate addition. Therefore, the correct arrangement to get the highest value possible is to place the numeral for 50 (L), followed by 100 (C), then subtract 1 before the 5, resulting in the word LXCI, which is not an option given above. An alternative reading of this question could imply the numerals should be placed in the order given: 100 (C), followed by 4 (IV), then 1 (I), and finally 50 (L). This arrangement gives us the word CIVIL, which suggests there might be a typo in the options provided. Based on the options given and typical rules of Roman numerals, we cannot create a valid word with the numerals provided.
