XXXXVI (10+10+10+10+5+1) XLVI (-10+50+5+1) VLI (-5+50+1) All of these forms of notation are acceptable but VLI is more preferable because fewer numerals are used. XLVI is the accepted way of writing 46. XXXXVI while being numerically correct is rarely ever used. According to the website Algebra.com VLI is completely wrong in that it breaks one of the rules of writing Roman numerals, "V can preceed X but not L or C."
