What is the sum of X+XX+XXX+XXXX?
It’s a matter of interpretation.
as would be assuming that these are representations of conventional numbers, in which case the answer for number bases of five or more would be
U.S. Home Sellers Are Sitting on Nearly $700 Billion Worth of Listings, an All-Time High - Redfin
11010X
and for binary would be
1234X
*Note that the abbreviation XL (for XXXX) appeared quite late in the Roman period, and never found universal favour
However, X +X^2 +X^3 + X^4 is a valid algebraic answer,
Given the use of upper case, I personally would initially assume Roman numerals*, so the answer would be C (100 in present-day decimal notation)
