In this article, we will explain how to correctly transform 1996 in Roman numerals.

• 1996 = 1000 + (1000 - 100) + (100 - 10) + 5 + 1
• Roman Numerals = M + (M - C) + (C - X) + V + I
• 1996 in Roman Numerals = MCMXCVI

• When a bigger letter precedes a smaller letter, the letters are added. For example: CX, C > X, so CX = C + X = 100 + 10 = 110.
• When a smaller letter precedes a bigger letter, the letters are subtracted. For example: CD, C < D, so CD = D - C = 500 - 100 = 400.
• When a letter is repeated multiple times, they get added. For example: MMM = M + M + M = 1000 + 1000 + 1000 = 3000
• The same letter cannot be used more than three times in succession.
