for example1, 4, 5, 6, 8, 120, and so on.
Romans have their own way of writing their figures hence the name Roman numbers.
Look at this table
When a symbol appears after a larger symbol it is added
Don't use the same symbol more than three times in a row.
Remember: After Larger is Added
Numbers greater than 1,000 are formed by placing a dash over the symbol, meaning "times 1,000", but these are not commonly used:
Break the number into Thousands, Hundreds, Tens and Units and write down each in turn.
Break 1984 into 1000, 900, 80 and 4, then do each conversion
So 1984 = MCMLXXXIV
Think "MeDiCaL XaVIer".
It has the roman numerals in order from 1000 to 1.
Example 1
Write 48 in roman numbers.
Write 23 in Roman numerals.
Example 3
Write XIX in Arabic numerals.
Solution 1
40 + 8 = 48
XL + VIII = XLVIII
20 + 3 = 23
XX + III = XXIII
XIX = 10 + (10 - 1)
= 10 + 9
= 19
