Question

Fill in the blanks :

A smaller roman numeral written to the _____________ of any larger numeral is always added to the larger numeral.

Answer 1

Explanation:

A smaller roman numeral written to the right of any larger numeral is always added to the larger numeral.

For example:

Consider a roman number $\mathrm{XVII}$

Here $\mathrm{X}=10,\mathrm{V}=5,\mathrm{I}=1$

$\text{XVII=}17=10+5+2=\text{X+V+II}$

Hence, a smaller roman numeral written to the right of any larger numeral is always added to the larger numeral.
