I asked my friend why they use Roman Numerals to keep track of superbowls.

The are getting so complex.

He responded that Roman Numerals are used for historical puposes and they are really quite simple

So I gave him this mulitplication problem:


XVIII
x XIV


I had to remind him that it would be cheating to convert this to 18 x 14.

I think he is not as comfortable with Roman Numerals as he thought he was.
