NNB
The values of Roman Numerals are :-
M = 1000
D = 500
C = 100
L = 50
X = 10
V = 5
I = 1 ( NB it is a Capital letter 'I'; NOT '1'(One)).
M=1000, C=100, X=10, I=1
The first M stands for 1000.
Next, CM stands for 900. 1000 - 100 = 900. Putting the C before the M is easier and more efficient than writing nine C's to represent 900.
XC means 90 because 100-10=90.
Lastly, I is 1.

What is the roman numeral for dm?
The question doesn't make any sense. Do you mean what is the Arabic number corresponding to the Roman numeral DM?
he Romans themselves didn't use shortcuts, and DM would just be 1500 (as would MD ... order didn't matter, you just added up the values).
Under the shortcut rules developed in the middle ages, DM would be D less than M. The problem is that no one would write it that way; since D is 500 and M is 1000, DM is exactly the same as the simpler and shorter D.

No such Roman numeral as 'ccclll'. Roman Numerals are ALWAYS written in Capital letters, so I think you mean 'CCCIII'.

Hence
CCC = 100 + 100 + 100 = 300
I = 1
Hence
III = 1+1+1 = 3
It follows that
CCCIII = 300+3 = 303
