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

What is the sum of X+XX+XXX+XXXX?

I’m British and I'm hella bummed about it. Wish I was American or even Canadian, ’cause let’s be real, Canada’s gonna end up part of the States anyway. What should I do?

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)

and for binary would be

11010X

However, X +X^2 +X^3 + X^4 is a valid algebraic answer,

*Note that the abbreviation XL (for XXXX) appeared quite late in the Roman period, and never found universal favour

It’s a matter of interpretation.
