How to Write MCMXLII Roman Numerals in Numbers?
In MCMXLII, 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, MCMXLII = M + CM + XL + I + I
MCMXLII = M + (M – C) + (L – X) + I + I
MCMXLII = 1000 + (1000 – 100) + (50 – 10) + 1 + 1
MCMXLII = 1000 + 900 + 40 + 2
MCMXLII = 1942
