How would you add together 777 and 999 in two different ways with all work shown entirely in Roman numerals?

To add 777 and 999 in Roman numerals, you can first convert the numbers to their Roman numeral equivalents. 777 is DCCCLXXVII and 999 is CMXCIX. Method 1: Add the two Roman numerals: DCCCLXXVII + CMXCIX = MDCCC LXXVI Method 2: Convert both numbers to their Arabic numeral equivalents, add them together, and then convert the sum back to Roman numerals: 777 + 999 = 1776, which can be written as MDCCLXXVI in Roman numerals.

How would you work out 1776 plus 999 and 1776 minus 999 showing all work with answers in Roman numerals including reasons why?

Presumably, in order to make Roman numerals more compatible with Hindu-Arabic numerals that were being introduced into Western Europe in the Middle Ages we now consider the equivalent of 999 expressed in Roman numerals as CMXCIX but back in the time of the ancient Roman Empire its equivalent was probably worked out on an abacus counting frame as DCCCCLXXXXVIIII and expressed in written format as IM thus facilitating the speed and ease of the required calculations as follows:-MDCCLXXVI+IM = MMDCCLXXV => 1776+(1000-1) = 2775MDCCLXXVI-IM = DCCLXXVII => 1776-(1000-1) = 777Note that in mathematics -(1000-1) becomes -1000+1 and that if we were to use the longer version of 999 the results would be exactly the same in both calculations.QED
