Roman Numeral Counting Game

🙁 MCCCXL 1340

MCCCXLI 1341

MCCCCCCXXXXZZ? is that right 🙁

nope.
M= 1000
D= 500
C=100 (CCC= 300)
L = 50
X = 10
V= 5
I = 1

eg. 1867 would be MDCCCLXVII

now 1343 IS MCCCXLIII

I dont get itcry

MCCCXLIV 1344

M (1000) CCC (300) XL (40) V (5)
MCCCXLV 1345

now? cry

Noweep

you should say 1346

1000 is M
300 is CCC (one C for each hundert)
40 is XL ( 50-10 = 40 L is 50, X is 10)
6 is VI (5+1 = 6 V is 5, I is 1)

now MCCCXLVII

and next you should say 1348

we had it at school. (primary school to be clear) 😕

MCCCLV

😆 well I guess we also learned the basics, but I never took the time to try to understand it 😛 i mean - what would you need *roman* numerals for? As a primary-school-kiddie? 😆

MCCCLVI

true.
but for me it was laways clear.
we've been using it to mark centuries. 😬

how would be 5 000? 😕

For me it was clear until XXX or so, but I never used it, so I forgot all the numbers 😬

I always mix up 500 and 5000... one of them is D... but I always forget which one cry I think 500 😬 no idea what 5000 is... is there a sign for it? what about 10000, does that exist?

MCCCCLVII

but now you have remindded yourself them all 😊

MCCCLVIII

D is 500
i have no idea how is 5 000 or 10 000
maybe romans didn't use so big numbers 😖

I'll never get itcry

one day you 'll.
you have to only try. it is easy.
