Basic Rules for Writing Roman Numerals

• Roman numerals use seven symbols: I, V, X, L, C, D, M.

• If a smaller numeral comes after a larger one, values are added (VI = 6).

• If a smaller numeral comes before a larger one, it is subtracted (IV = 4).

• I, X, C, and M can be repeated up to three times; V, L, and D are not repeated.

• Roman numerals are generally written from left to right in decreasing value.
  
  

Solved Examples on CLII Roman Numerals

Example 1: Find the value of CLII Roman numerals in numbers.

Solution:

• C = 100, L = 50, II = 2 (1 + 1)

• Add them: 100 + 50 + 2 = 152.

CLII Roman numerals is equivalent to 152.

Example 2: Write 152 in Roman numerals.

Solution:

• Break down 152 into 100 + 50 + 2

• C = 100, L = 50 , I = 1, II = 1 + 1 = 2

• Combining the symbols we get 100 + 50 + 2 = C + L + II  = CLII

CLII Roman numerals is 152.

Example 3: Identify Roman numerals before and after CLII.

Solution: CLII Roman numerals is equal to 152

• Before: CLI = 151

• After: CLIII = 153

Example 4: What rules are used to create CLII Roman numerals?

Solution:  These rules are followed in writing CLII Roman numerals

• Addition rule: When symbols are written from largest to smallest, you add the values.

• All symbols in CLII are in descending order (C > L > I), so addition is used throughout.

• Repetition Rule: A numeral can be repeated up to three times in a row.

Example: II = 1 + 1 = 2.

Example 5: LXXX + LXXII = ?

Solution:

• Convert: LXXX = 80, LXXII = 72

• Add: 80 + 72 = 152.

• Hence, LXXX + LXXII = CLII
