The question is incorrectly asked. 'What is McMLXXVI in Roman numerals?'

The answer is that it is alreadu in Roman Numerals.

The question should ask ' What is MCMLXXVI' in Arabic (Modern) numerals.

The answer is '1976' .

The Table of Roman numeral is

M = 1000

D = 500

C = 100

L = 50

X = 10

V = 5

I = 1

You always put the highes value letter to the left. followed by lower value letters. Except when subtracting a lower value from a higher value.

Hence

M = 1000

CM = ( 1000 - 100 = 900_

So MCM = 1000 + 900 = 1900

L = 50

So MCML = 1900 + 50 = 1950

X = 10

XX = 10 + 10 = 20

Hence

MCMLXX = 1950 + 20 = 1970

V = 5

I = 1 (NB In Roman Numerals it is a Capital letter 'I' , NOT figure '1(one)'. However, 'I' equates to '1'

Hemce

MCMLXXVI = 1970 + 5 + 1 = 1976
