A Roman was born the first day of the 35th year before Christ and died the first day of the 35th year after Christ. How many years did he live?

• There is no year 00 in the calender so, the years would be -35,-34,-33,...-02,-01,+01,02,...+34. Total years = 69.

• Roman died the first day of the 35th year after Christ. Means Roman lived up to last day of the 34th year.
  now, Consider the years as
  35(born), 34, 33, 32, ......., 2, 1 (Christ) 1, 2, 3, 4,.... 32, 33, 34.
  Now count the years.
  Answer = 35+34=69

  and 34 years after christ, because first day of 35th year is not counted as whole year..
  so total years is 35+34=69 yrs

• ans:)69 years.
  it is because for BC we count the years in back order but in AC we count in the usual order.so sounting in this way we get 35 years before the birth of Christ and exactly 34 years after his birth.
