In today's notation of Roman numerals 999 is CMXCIX which makes it quite difficult to perform any mathematical operations with it.
But there is evidence that supports the fact that the Romans themselves would have calculated the equivalent of 999 on an abacus counting device as DCCCCLXXXXVIIII and then probably simplified it to IM in written form which would make addition and subtraction simple and straightforward as follows:-
Addition
IM+DCLXVI = MDCLXV (1000-1)+(666) = 1665
Subtraction
DCCCCLXXXXVIIII-DCLXVI = CCCXXXIII (999-666 = 333) by cancelling out the numerals
Roman numerals: M+1000, D=500, C=100, L=50, X=10, V=5 and I=1
QED
Today we write out 999 in Roman numerals as CMXCIX but the Romans themselves would have probably wrote it out as IM which is the same as DCCCCLXXXXVIIII So: DCCCCLXXXXVIIII minus DCLXVI equals CCCXXXIII (333)
You type roman numerals by using capital letters.
If you mean in Roman numerals then: 753 = DCCLIII
Spend a day using only roman numerals instead of Arabic numerals. The disadvantages will become painfully obvious.
Not really, since roman numerals don't have units smaller then one.

The number 947 in Roman numerals would be CMXLVII
We started Roman Numerals in about the year of 1389 AD I think.

Convert from Roman numerals to Arabic numerals, add, convert back to Roman numerals.
The answer depends on how many more millennia they keep using Roman numerals!
You cannot write fractions using Roman numerals.
