What are the real rules when adding together 1444 and 568 in Roman numerals using two different calculations but with the same results?

Today we would convert 1444 into Roman numerals as MCDXLIV which is a non-starter in terms of integration with other numerals.
But in ancient Rome the Romans would have calculated the equivalent of 1444 as MCCCCXXXXIIII which can be logically transformed to IVLMD yet still retaining its original numerical value thus enabling addition to be carried with speed and ease as follows:-
IVLMD+DLXVIII = MMXII (-56+1500)+(568) = (2012)
Alternatively:-
MCCCCXXXXIIII+DLXVIII= MMXII (1444)+(568) = (2012)
So the real rules are that when in Rome do as the Romans do.

How would you correctly calculate 52 plus 49 and 52 minus 49 but working out both calculations entirely in Roman numerals with explanations?
The modern way of expressing 49 into Roman numerals is now XLIX but the ancient Romans would have probably worked out the equivalent of 49 on an abacus counting frame as XXXXVIIII and then wrote it out as IL thus expediently working out the required calculations as follows:-LII+IL = CI => 52+(50-1) = 101LII-IL = III => 52-(50-1) = 3Note that in mathematics -(50-1) becomes -50+1 and that if we were to use the longer version of 49 in the above calculations the results would be exactly the same.QED
How would you calculate 1776 plus 1449 and 1776 minus 1449 but showing both calculations worked out entirely in Roman numerals with explanations?
Today's modern way of expressing 1449 as Roman numerals is now MCDXLIX which prohibits sensible interaction with other numerals but the ancient Romans would have worked out the equivalent of 1449 on an abacus counting device as MCCCCXXXXVIIII and probably abridged it to ILMD thus facilitating the speed and ease of calculations as follows:-MDCCLXXVI+ILMD = MMMCCXXV => 1776+(1500-51) = 3225MDCCLXXVI-ILMD = CCCXXVII => 1776-(1500-51) = 327Note that the results would be exactly the same if we were to use the longer version of the equivalent of 1449.QED
What is it when the presence of two different alleles results in an intermediate?
When a heterozygous genotype (two different alleles) results in an intermediate phenotype, this is either codominance or incomplete dominance. If it is codominance, then both alleles are expressed together in the phenotype. If it is incomplete dominance, the two alleles produce a blended phenotype rather than both alleles being expressed together.
Why is there an order of operations in math?
Because without an agreed upon order, some calculations would yield ambiguous results.

When is Excel and Access used together?
There are lots of occasions when you want to do different kinds of things with the same data. Excel and Access can easily transfer data between each other. If you are doing lots of calculations, then Excel is better. If you are processing lists of data, the Access is better. Sometimes you want to do both. Sometimes you want to generate results from one and use those in the other. There are so many situations, that it is not practical to list them, but the two applications can work well together.
