No. To figure out Roman numerals, you simply add the numeral that's on the right, and/or subtract the numeral on the left IF it's a lesser value.

No, the Roman numeral system is not a place value system. In the Roman numeral system, each individual symbol represents a specific value, and there is no concept of place value. Place value systems, such as the decimal system, rely on the position of digits within a number to determine their value.
