Basic Rules to Interpret Roman Numerals

When a bigger letter precedes a smaller letter, the letters are added. For example: DC, D > C, so DC = D + C = 500 + 100 = 600.
When a smaller letter precedes a bigger letter, the letters are subtracted. For example: XL, X < L, so XL = L - X = 50 - 10 = 40.
When a letter is repeated multiple times, they get added. For example: MM = M + M = 1000 + 1000 = 2000
The same letter cannot be used more than three times in succession.

Roman numerals may seem different from numbers, but they are similar. For example, 1 in roman numerals is equivalent to I. The roman numerals for numbers related to 1 are given below:

I = 1
II = 1 + 1 = 2
III = 1 + 1 + 1 = 3
IV = 5 -1 = 4
V = 5
VI = 5 + 1 = 6
VII = 5 + 1 + 1= 7
VIII = 5 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 8
IX = 10 - 1 = 9
X = 10

1 in Roman Numerals Examples

Example 1: What is the result when I is added to XVII?

Example 2: Find the value of 31 - 1. Write the result in form of roman numerals.

Solution:

Solving the given problem, 31 - 1 = 30
To determine the value of 31 - 1 in roman numerals, we will express 31 first, in the expanded form, i.e. 31 = 30 + 1 = X + X + X + I = XXXI
31 - 1 = XXXI - I = XXX = 30
Example 3: Find the Difference Between 63 and 1 in Roman Numerals.

Solution:

Solving the given problem, 63 - 1 = 62
To determine the value of 63 - 1 = 62 in roman numerals, we will express 62 in the expanded form, i.e., 62 = 60 + 2 = L + X + II = LXII
Example 4: Find the Value of (24 - 20) + 1 in roman numerals.

Solution:

Solving (24 - 20) + 1 = 4 + 1 = 5. Now, we will write the answer, that is, 5 = V.
