How to Write CMLIX Roman Numerals in Numbers?
In CMLIX, let us separate each of the primary symbols and apply the addition and subtraction rule of Roman numerals. M = 1000, C = 100, L = 50, X = 10 and I = 1.
So, CMLIX = CM + L + IX
CMLIX = (M – C) + L + (X – I)
CMLIX = (1000 – 100) + 50 + (10 – 1)
CMLIX = 900 + 50 + 9
CMLIX = 959
959 = CMLIX.
