Grand Theft Auto ‘Most Successful Way Of Teaching Roman Numerals’

Games News: Buying a copy of Grand Theft Auto V is now regarded as the single most successful, and expensive, way of teaching people Roman numerals.

“Sure it might cost fifty pounds every time they learn a numeral, but you can’t put a price on education,” said Martin Vargus, who had just bought the latest copy of the game for his 13-year-old son.

“This way he’ll know what five is in roman numerals, which will be an invaluable skill he can use for the rest of his life – like if he ever wants to work out what year an old BBC TV programme was made in.”

Mr. Vargus says the game provides his son with a solid academic base to learn from.

“At this rate it won’t take long for my boy to be familiar with all seven symbols used in the ancient Roman numeric system – as well as the guilty thrill of running over a prostitute in a stolen ambulance.”
