Basic Rules for Writing Roman Numerals

1. The symbols are combined from largest to smallest.
Example: MXXXI = 1000 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 1 = 1031

2. Repetition Rule: A symbol cannot be repeated more than three times.
Example: III = 3 (correct), but IIII is wrong

3. Subtraction rule: The smallest numeral before a larger number is subtracted.
Example: CM = 900 = 1000 – 100, XC = 90 = 100 – 10, IV = 4 = 5 – 1

4. Additional rule: A smaller numeral after a larger number is added.
Example: VI = 5 + 1 = 6

5. V, L, and D are never repeated or subtracted.

Solved Examples on MXXXIV Roman Numeral

Example 1: Convert MXXXIV to numbers.

Solution: Break down MXXXIV Roman numeral into components as:
MXXXIV = M + XXX + IV, where M = 1000, XXX = 30 and IV = 4
Now replace each component with its numeric value and add them together: 
M + XXX + IV = 1000 + 30 + 4 = 1034

Example 2: Convert 1034 into Roman numerals.

Solution:
Step 1: Break and write 1034 into thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones: 1034 = 1000 + 30 + 4
Step 2: Write the Roman numerals for each part: 1000 = M, 30 = XXX and 4 = IV
Step 3: Combine and write them together to get the final numeral: M + XXX + IV = MXXXIV

Example 3: Find the value of MXX + XIV.

Solution: We know that, MXX = 1020 and XIV = 14
Now, add them: 1020 + 14 = 1034
In Roman numerals, 1034 = MXXXIV

Example 4: Find the difference between ML (1050) and  XVI (16).

Solution: To find the difference, let's subtract the numerical values: 1050 – 16 = 1034
Now, convert 1034 to Roman numerals: 1000 + 30 + 4 = M + XXX + IV = MXXXIV
Therefore, ML – XVI = MXXXIV

Example 5: Find the value of MXL − VI.

Solution: First, convert the Roman numerals into numbers:

MXL = 1000 + 40 = 1040
VI = 6

Now, subtract:

MXL − VI = 1040 − 6 = 1034

Convert 1034 back into Roman numerals:
1034 = 1000 + 30 + 4 = M + XXX + IV = MXXXIV

Therefore, MXL − VI = MXXXIV
