Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation
 $13\times 7=91$
Break the number $91$ (decompose it) into place value subgroups: 
$91 = 90 + 1;$

Convert each subgroup: $90 = 100 - 10 => C - X = XC; 1 = I;$

Wrap up the Roman numeral: 
$91 = 90 + 1 = XC + I = XCI;$
$ XCI$ is a group of numerals in additive and subtractive notation which will be $91.$

So option C is the correct answer.
