Roman Numerals

If they're pointing exactly at the same number, the time can only be 12:00

Well, darling, MMSI stands for Maritime Mobile Service Identity number. It's a unique nine-digit number used to identify ships and boats in the digital world of communication. Think of it as a social security number for your vessel. So, if you want to play in the big leagues on the high seas, you better have your MMSI number handy.

The Roman numeral for 50 million is "L" with a horizontal line above it, which represents 50,000,000 in Roman numerals. The horizontal line above the "L" symbolizes that the value is being multiplied by 1,000. Roman numerals are a numeral system that originated in ancient Rome and are still used in some contexts today.

To write 1200 in numeric form, you simply write the digits 1, 2, 0, and 0 in that order. The number 1 is in the thousands place, the number 2 is in the hundreds place, and the two zeros represent no value in the tens or ones place. Therefore, 1200 is written numerically as 1,200.

It does not represent anything because it is an invalid arrangement of Roman numerals.

Oh, dude, you're hitting me with the Roman numerals question? Like, XXX is the Roman numeral for 30. So, if you ever find yourself transported back to ancient Rome and need to impress someone with your knowledge of Roman numerals, you're all set. Or, you know, you could just Google it.

The Roman numeral IV represents the number 4 in our modern Arabic numeral system. In Roman numerals, "I" represents 1 and "V" represents 5. When a smaller numeral (I) is placed before a larger numeral (V), it is subtracted from the larger numeral, resulting in 4.

The Roman numeral MCMXCVII represents the number 1997. In Roman numerals, M represents 1000, CM represents 900, XC represents 90, and VII represents 7. When these values are added together (1000 + 900 + 90 + 7), they equal 1997.

The number XXXVIII is equivalent to 38 in standard Arabic numerals. In Roman numerals, X represents 10, V represents 5, and III represents 3. When these values are added together (10 + 10 + 5 + 3), the total is 38.

In all reality the ancient Romans had no real reasons for such large numbers in fact the original Roman numeral system had only five symbols in it which were I V X L and C. For 500 it once was I) and for 1000 it once was (I) later changed to D and M respectively.

But if needed the Roman numeral system is capable of such large numbers by means of brackets and superscripts as follows:-

(M)(M) which means 1000*1000*1000*1000 = 1,000,000,000,000 or as 1.0*1012 in scientific notation

The Roman numerals are: XXX, XL, L, LX, LXX, LXXX, XC, C.

Roman numerals....
1 = I
2 = II
3 = III
4 = IV (or IIII on old clocks, watches and sundials)
5 = V
6 = VI
7 = VII
8 = VIII
9 = IX
10 = X
20 = XX
30 = XXX
40 = XL
50 = L
60 = LX
70 = LXX
80 = LXXX
90 = XC
100 = C
500 = D
1000 = M
2000 = MM
3000 = MMM

After 3000 thousand are written by either placing a horizontal bar over a numeral, to indicate that the numeral should be multiplied by 1000, or by placing the numeral inside brackets, which also indicates that it should be multiplied by 1000. Examples...
4000 = [IV]
10000 = [X]
523000 = [DXXIII]
1000000 = [M]

The numbers 11 - 19 and 21 - 29 etc follow the same pattern as the numbers 1 to 9 but preceeded by X or XX etc. The same applies to numbers preceeded by 100s or 1000s. Some examples...
14 = XIV
44 = XLIV
88 = LXXXVIII
151 = CLI
423 = CDXXIII
666 = DCLXVI
1066 = MLXVI
2009 = MMIX

Ah, what a happy little question! XX is the Roman numeral for 20, and when we add another X, it becomes 30. So, XXM would be the Roman numeral for 2030. Just imagine all the beautiful landscapes and possibilities that the year 2030 holds, my friend!

In Roman numerals, "vXXX" is not a standard or valid notation. Roman numerals follow specific rules and conventions for their notation. Here is a brief explanation of how Roman numerals work:

• I = 1
• V = 5
• X = 10
• L = 50
• C = 100
• D = 500
• M = 1000

When combining these symbols, there are rules such as:

Smaller numbers before larger numbers indicate subtraction (e.g., IV = 4).

Smaller numbers after larger numbers indicate addition (e.g., VI = 6).

The notation "vXXX" does not conform to these rules. Roman numerals are typically written in uppercase letters, and lowercase "v" is not standard.

If we correct the notation to "VXXX", it would represent 5 (V) followed by three tens (XXX), which is:

• V = 5
• XXX = 30

So, "VXXX" would be 5 + 30 = 35.

In Arabic numerals, LI represents the number 51. The Arabic numeral system is a positional decimal system, where the value of a digit depends on its position within a number. In this case, L represents 50 and I represents 1, so when combined, LI equals 51.

CXXXXV is not a correctly written Roman numeral. The individual numerals within it are real numerals but according to the rules of writing Roman numerals 'no numeral can be written more than three times in succession.' So, XXXX is not allowed. The numerals you have written add up to 145 and the correct Roman numeral for this is CXLV

The Roman numeral for 50 is L

1438 = MCDXXXVIII

Construction

M = 1000

D = 500

C = 100

CD = 500 - 100 = 400

NB When a smaller valuer letter 'C' is placed to the left of a larger value letter 'D' , it means subtract hence CD = 500 - 100 = 400

X = 10

XXX = 10 + 10 + 10 = 30

V = 5

I = 1

III = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3

Hence 1000 + 400 + 30 + 5 +3 = 1438

NB one(1) is Roman Numerals is a capital letter 'I'. NOT a figure '1' .

Well, friend, the Roman numeral system is not a decimal system like our Arabic numerals. It uses letters like I, V, X, L, C, D, and M to represent numbers. Each letter has a specific value, and by combining them, you can represent different numbers. It's a beautiful and ancient way of counting that has its own unique charm.

"IIV" is not a valid representation in Roman numerals. In Roman numerals, the correct representation of the number 7 is "VII," which is a combination of the symbols for 5 (V) and 2 (II). The subtractive principle in Roman numerals dictates that a smaller numeral before a larger one indicates subtraction, not addition.

Ah, Roman numerals are like little puzzle pieces, aren't they? To write 8.5 in Roman numerals, we can represent 8 as VIII and 0.5 as a half, which is written as a V with a line above it, making it V̅. So, 8.5 in Roman numerals is VIII.V̅.

The Arabic numeral "dcxxxii" represents the number 632 in standard Hindu-Arabic numerals. In this number, "d" represents 500, "c" represents 100, and "x" represents 10. Therefore, when we add these values together (500 + 100 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 1), we get the total value of 632 in Arabic numerals.

Under the accepted convention, XCCMXCIX would be regarded as an invalid numeral.

Roman numerals can be broken down into 13 possible values, which can be combined to form any number from 1 to 3999. The first 7 values are as follows:

I=1

V=5

X=10

L=50

C=100

D=500

M=1000

The accepted convention states that no numeral may be repeated more than 3 times in succession. Thus 3 would be represented by III. However it would be impossible to notate the value 4. Thus the following six combinations are permitted to cater for values that would otherwise be impossible under this convention:

IV=4

IX=9

XL=40

XC=90

CD=400

CM=900

These values are known subtractive pairs. When one small value precedes one large value, we subtract the smaller from the larger. Thus IV is 5-1=4. Although combinations such as IM (1000-1=999) are also possible, the accepted convention does not permit them.

So, breaking the numeral XCCMXCIX down into its component values we get:

xc = 90

cm = 900

xc = 90

ix = 9

While each of these component values are valid by themselves, they are not in descending order. Thus the numeral is considered invalid.

Had each value been in descending order, we would simply add them up. Thus the number could be 1089 (90+900+90+9). However, the accepted convention for 1089 would be written MLXXXIX.

Because the first 90 is followed by a larger value (900), perhaps we are meant to subtract the 90 from the 900? If so, the two 90s cancel each other out and we're left with 909, which would be better written as CMIX.

Even if we ignore the accepted convention, the meaning is ambiguous. So, for both those reasons, the numeral is invalid.

The phrase "Cala a boca e me beija" is in Portuguese and translates to "Shut up and kiss me" in English. The phrase is a command telling someone to be quiet and then kiss the speaker. It is commonly used in a playful or romantic context.
