The Romans had no numeral to represent zero because there was no need for a zero in their system. We have 9 numbers plus the zero symbol. We add a zero on to the end of a number to convert it to tens and two zeros to convert it to hundreds and so on. The Romans simply had different symbols for tens and hundreds. For example we would write 1, 10, 20, 40, 50, 100 and 200 but the same numbers as Roman numerals would be I, X, XX, XL, L, C and CC, done quite simply with no need for a zero. In the middle ages monks, who still used Roman numerals and wrote in Latin, began to used the symbol N to represent zero (from the Latin Nullae meaning nothing).
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.
Place value is not used in the Roman numeral system.
It is O because it's not needed in the Roman numeral system for place value purposes as the place value of the numerals are self evident
Yes but unlike the Hindu-Arabic numeral system which requires a 0 symbol for positional place value purposes the Roman numeral system does not need a 0 symbol because the positional place value of these numerals are self evident.
The Mayan numeral system had a symbol in it to represent nought for positional place value purposes whereas the Roman numeral system didn't need a nought figure because the positional place value of these numerals are self evident.

A nought symbol because it's not needed in the Roman numeral system because the place value of Roman numerals are self evident. But a nought symbol is essential in the Hindu-Arabic numeral system for positional place value purposes.
The place value of Roman numerals are self evident that's why the system doesn't need a zero figure for positional place value purposes which is essential in the Hindu-Arabic numeral system.

E is not used as a symbol in the roman numeral system.
A nought figure is not needed in the Roman numeral system because the positional place value of these numerals are self evident. A nought figure is needed in the Arabic numeral system (the numbers we use today) to identify the positional place value of these numerals.
1. Roman numeral system does not follow the place value system like decimal system. 2. the numerals if written at left or right of a bigger numeral get subtracted or added, but in decimal system this type of confusion is not there. rks_21269@yahoo.com
