What is the number of xcv in numbers for roman numerals?

Answer 1

First of all 'xcv' should be written as 'XCV'. Note the use of Capital letters.

Here is a the table of Roman Numerals

M = 1000

D = 500

C = 100

L = 50

X = 10

V = 5

I = 1

Next when writing Roman numerals, the largest value letter ALWAYS goes to the left. However, when a smaller value numeral is to the left of a larger value numeral it means SUBTRACT.

So XC , we have a lower valuer numeral(X=10) to the left of a larger value numeral (C=100)

So this mean XC = ( 100 - 10 = 90) .

Hence XC = 90

The 'V = 5' is a lower value again , and so goes to the right of the larger value, as given. This means 'add'.

Hence

XCV = 90 + 5 = 95 The Answer!!!!!
