SoluTion :-

VC ⇝ When a digit of lower value is written to the right or after a digit of higher value, the values of all the digits are added.

-» But in this case, V (5) is smaller than C (100), but it is left to it.

_____________

IL ⇝ In the same way, when a digit of lower value is written to the right or after a digit of higher value, the values of all the digits are added.

-» But in this case, I (1) is smaller than L (50), but it is left to it.

_____________

VVII ⇝The symbol V (5) can never be repeated.

-» But in this case, it was repeated, and so it is invalid.

_____________

IXX ⇝  Nineteen could be written XIX = X + IX (9). Note also how the rule requires X (ten) be placed before IX (nine),

IXX would not be an acceptable configuration. Generally the Romans tried to use as few numerals as possible when displaying numbers.
