Answer (2)

The correct translation of 'All roads lead to Rome' in formal logic is R → L , indicating that if something is a road, then it leads to Rome. Both options provided do not accurately reflect this meaning, with one reversing the implication and the other lacking a full expression. Therefore, neither option is correct.
