Solved Examples on Roman Numerals 500 to 1000

Roman numerals between 500 and 1000 can be written using two methods:

Method 1: Breaking into Expandable Form

Break the number into its components, then write the corresponding symbols.
Example:
628 = 500 + 100 + 10 + 10 + 5 + 1 + 1 + 1
= D + C + X + X + V + I + I + I
= DCXXVIII

Method 2: Grouping by Addition

Group numbers in hundreds, tens, and ones, then combine them.
Example:
628 = 600 + 20 + 8 = DC + XX + VIII = DCXXVIII

Both methods are correct and widely used in Roman numeral conversions.

 

Rules to Write Roman Numerals from 500 to 1000

When writing Roman numerals 500 to 1000, follow these key principles:

1. When a larger numeral precedes a smaller one, add the values.
   Example: DC = 500 + 100 = 600
   
   

2. When a smaller numeral precedes a larger one, subtract it.
   Example: CM = 1000 – 100 = 900
   
   

3. A numeral repeated three times represents its total sum.
   Example: CCC = 300
   
   

4. V (5), L (50), and D (500) are never repeated.
   
   

 

How to Write Roman Numerals 500 to 1000?

Example 1:

Find the value of CMLXVIII – DCCXCII.
CMLXVIII = 900 + 60 + 8 = 968
DCCXCII = 700 + 90 + 2 = 792
→ 968 – 792 = 176 = CLXXVI

 

Example 2:

Simplify DCCXXXII + (DCXCIII – CMXIV) + DCCXLVIII.
Using the Roman numerals chart:
DCCXXXII = 732, DCXCIII = 693, CMXIV = 914, DCCXLVIII = 748
→ 732 + (693 – 914) + 748 = 1259 = MCCLIX

 

Example 3:

Find all Perfect Cubes between Roman numerals 500 and 1000.
Perfect cubes between 500 and 1000: 512, 729, 1000
→ In Roman numerals: DXII, DCCXXIX, M

 

Example 4:

Find the product of LXV × XLV.
LXV = 65, XLV = 45
→ 65 × 45 = 2925 = MMCMXXV

 

Conclusion

The range of Roman numerals 500 to 1000 includes symbols from D (500) up to M (1000).
By practicing the conversion and following the basic rules, students can easily translate any number within this range into Roman numerals.
