How would you add together the four Arabic numerals of 9 99 999 and 1999 using Roman numerals in step by step stages giving reasons for your answer?
Today we would convert the above numbers into Roman numerals as IX, XCIX, CMXCIX and MCMXCIX respectively which makes any form of mathematical operations with them almost impossible.
But during the Roman era the equivalent of 9 99 999 and 1999 were probably wrote out in a simplified format of IX, IC, IM and IMM respectively which makes addition straightforward as follows:-
IX+IC = CVIII (9+99 = 108)
CVIII+IM = MCVII (108+999 = 1,107)
MCVII+IMM = MMMCVI (1,107+1,999 = 3,106)
So when added together the answer is: MMMCVI which is the equivalent of 3,106

How would you subtract 1776 from 1999 in Roman numerals giving reasons for your answer?
In today's terms 1999 and 1776 expressed in Roman numerals are MCMXCIX and MDCCLXXVI respectively. To find the difference of these numerals is almost impossible because of the way that 1999 is expressed despite the fact that 1776 is correct. But the Romans would have probably expressed these numbers in the following manner IMM and MDCCLXXVI. IMM is a simplification of MDCCCCLXXXXVIIII So: MDCCCCLXXXXVIIII - MDCCLXXVI = CCXXIII (223) by cancelling out the numerals. Check: MDCCLXXVI + CCXXIII = MDCCCCLXXXXVIIII = IMM when simplified The way we work out Roman numerals today is different in the way that the Romans actually did themselves because the rules governing the Roman numeral system were changed in the Middle Ages. Presumably to make it easier to convert Roman numerals into Hindu-Arabic numerals that were gradually being introduced into Western Europe.
How should the New Year of 2014 be correctly expressed using Roman numerals in two different ways if one of them is not MMXIV giving reasons?
MMXIIII as the alternate (on clocks for example) version of number 4 is IIII
How would you add together in detail 1223 and 776 using Roman numerals giving reasons for your answer?
Under today's rules governing the Roman numeral system the above numbers when converted into Roman numerals officially add up to MCMXCIX (1999) but the Romans would have worked them out differently using an abacus counting device as follows:- MCCXXIII+DCCLXXVI = MDCCCCLXXXXVIIII (1223+776 = 1999) They then probably simplified these numerals in written form to IMM (2000-1 = 1999) in the same way that VIIII (9) is simplified to IX (10-1 = 9) It's worth noting that if the numerals MCMXCIX were arranged in the form of M+CM+XC+IX then they too would add up to IMM because the Romans probably added them together in the following manner:- M+CM = CMM (1000+900 = 1900) CMM+XC = XMM (1900+90 = 1990) XMM+IX = IMM (1990+9 = 1999) The real rules governing the Roman numeral system were changed during the Middle Ages presumably to make it easier to convert Roman numerals into Hindu-Arabic numerals and vice versa.
How do you work out 1776 plus 1999 in Roman numerals giving reasons for your answer?
Today we write out 1999 in Roman numerals as MCMXCIX because of changes made to the rules governing the Roman numeral system during the Middle Ages and to add these numerals to MDCCLXXVI is almost impossible. But the Romans themselves would have calculated 1999 on an abacus counting device as MDCCCCLXXXXVIIII and probably simplified them to IMM by placing I to both sides of the numerals. So: MDCCLXXVI + (-I+MM) = MMMDCCLXXV (3775)
How would you add up in step by step increments 19 49 99 499 and 1110 using Roman numerals giving reasons for your answer?
Notwithstanding today's notation of Roman numerals inasmuch that during the Roman era itself the equivalent of the above numbers were probably written out as IXX, IL, IC, ID and MCX respectively which makes addition quite straightforward as follows:- IXX+IL = LXVIII (19+49 = 68) LXVIII+IC = CLXVII (68+99 = 167) CLXVII+ID = DCLXVI (167+499 = 666) DCLXVI+MCX = MDCCLXXVI (666+1110 = 1776) Today's rules governing the Roman numeral system were introduced during the Middle Ages presumably to make it easier to convert Roman numerals into Hindu-Arabic numerals and vice versa.
What is four point five in Roman numerals giving reasons for your answer?
4.5 = SV (-0.5+5=4.5) Because: 4.5 = IIIIS which can be simplified to SV And: II*IIIIS = VIIII which can be simplified to IX Roman Numerals: M=1000, D=500, C=100, L=50, X=10, V=5, I=1 and S=1/2
Is MCMXCIX bigger or smaller than IMM in Roman numerals or are they both the same giving reasons why?
They are both the same because in todays modern notation of Roman numerals the equivalent of 1999 is MCMXCIX which means 1000+900+90+9 = 1999 But the ancient Romans would have probably gone for the simpler version of IMM which means 2000-1 = 1999
What are the advantages and disadvantages of using roman numerals?
Advantages of using Roman numerals: In outlines, you can differentiate between indented subsections, giving more clarity to an outline. It is harder to misinterpret a number if the number is smudged in writing.Disadvantages: There is no "zero" in Roman numerals. They are much harder to add and subtract, especially in numbers greater than ten. The hindu-arabic numbering system is more succinct (for example, the year "1988" in Roman numerals is "MCMLXXXVIII". The largest number that can be expressed properly in Roman numerals is 3,999,999 as MMMCMXCIXCMXCIX (the bolded characters would have a line over them.
How would you subtract 223 from 1999 in Roman numerals giving step by step details and reasons for your answer?
Under today's rules governing the Roman numeral system we would write out 1999 in Roman numerals as MCMXCIX which makes it almost impossible to perform any kind of arithmetical operations with them. But the Romans themselves would have calculated 1999 on an abacus counting board as MDCCCCLXXXXVIIII and probably simplified them to IMM (-1+2000 = 1999) in written form. So: MDCCCCLXXXXVIIII - CCXXIII = MDCCLXXVI (1776) Today's rules governing the Roman numeral system were introduced during the Middle Ages but that was long after 246 AD when there were no Romans around any more in England. Presumably these new rules were introduced to make it easier to covert Roman numerals into Hindu-Arabic numerals and vice versa. Roman numerals: M=1000, D=500, C=100, L=50, X=10, V+5 and I=1

What is the correct way to write out 19 in Roman numerals if it is not XIX giving reasons why?
XIX is the correct roman numeral for 19.Another Answer:-Nowadays it is XIX but in ancient Rome it was IXX because its Latin word is undeviginti meaning one from twenty and there is no Latin word for the equivalent of XIX
