It’s a matter of interpretation.
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)
What is the sum of X+XX+XXX+XXXX?
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
1234X
*Note that the abbreviation XL (for XXXX) appeared quite late in the Roman period, and never found universal favour
What is one fantasy you have never told anyone about but really want to do?
However, X +X^2 +X^3 + X^4 is a valid algebraic answer,
and for binary would be
11010X
