The difficulty is that the way we write out Roman today is different to the way the Romans actually did themselves. This is because of new rules governing the Roman numeral system that were introduced during the Middle Ages and which we still use today.
These new rules made a mishmash of Roman numerals making it almost impossible to perform any mathematical operations with them.
Take one example for instance, today we write out the number 29 as XXIX but the Romans themselves wrote it out as XXVIIII evidence of this can be found in the ruins of the Coliseum in Rome.
