To convert 46 in Roman Numerals, we will write 46 in the expanded form, i.e. 46 = (50 - 10) + 5 + 1 thereafter replacing the transformed numbers with their respective roman numerals, we get 46 = (L - X) + V + I = XLVI. In this article, we will explain how to correctly transform 46 in Roman numerals.

  • 46 = (50 - 10) + 5 + 1
  • Roman Numerals = (L - X) + V + I
  • 46 in Roman Numerals = XLVI

Basic Rules to Interpret Roman Numerals

  • When a bigger letter precedes a smaller letter, the letters are added. For example: DI, D > I, so DI = D + I = 500 + 1 = 501.
  • 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: XX = X + X = 10 + 10 = 20
  • 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, 46 in roman numerals is equivalent to XLVI. The roman numerals for numbers related to 46 are given below:

  • XL = 40
  • XLI = 40 + 1 = 41
  • XLII = 40 + 2 = 42
  • XLIII = 40 + 3 = 43
  • XLIV = 40 + 4 = 44
  • XLV = 40 + 5 = 45
  • XLVI = 40 + 6 = 46
  • XLVII = 40 + 7 = 47
  • XLVIII = 40 + 8 = 48
  • XLIX = 40 + 9 = 49

46 in Roman Numerals Examples

  1. Example 1: What is the remainder when XLVI is divided by XII?

    Solution:

    XII = 12 and XLVI = 46 in numbers.
    On dividing 46 by 12, it leaves a remainder of 10.
    Now, 10 = X
    Therefore, when XLVI is divided by XII, the remainder is X.

  2. Example 2: Find the Value of (6 - 46) + 46 in roman numerals.

    Solution:

    Solving (6 - 46) + 46 = -40 + 46 = 6. Now, we will write the answer, that is, 6 = VI.

  3. Example 3: Find the Difference Between 99 and 46 in Roman Numerals.

    Solution:

    Solving the given problem, 99 - 46 = 53
    To determine the value of 99 - 46 in roman numerals, we will express 53 in the expanded form, i.e., 53 = 50 + 3 = L + III = LIII.

  4. Example 4: Find the value of 2215 - 46.

    Solution:

    Solving the given problem, 2215 - 46 = 2169
    To determine the value of 2215 - 46 in roman numerals, we will express 2169 in the expanded form, i.e. 2169 = 2000 + 100 + 60 + 9 = MM + C + LX + IX = MMCLXIX.
