6 in Roman numerals is VI. To convert 6 in Roman Numerals, we will write 6 as the sum of numbers 5 and 1, i.e. 6 = 5 + 1, thereafter replacing the transformed numbers with their respective roman numerals, we get 6 = V + I = VI. In this article, we will explain how to correctly transform 6 in Roman numerals.

• 6 = 5 + 1
• Representing in Roman Numerals, 6 = V + I
• 6 in Roman Numerals = VI

Roman numeral for 6 can be obtained by using the method given below:
In this method, we break 6 into the sum of numbers 5 and 1, to apply the "additive notation". It states that whenever we have a bigger letter preceding a smaller letter, the letters would be added. Thus, we can obtain the Roman numeral for 6 by breaking it into the sum of 5 and 1 and writing their respective equivalent roman letters and combining them, i.e. 6 = 5 + 1 = V + I = VI.

• 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: XL, X < L, so XL = L - X = 50 - 10 = 40.
• When a letter is repeated multiple times, they get added. For example: XXX = X + X + X = 10 + 10 + 10 = 30
• The same letter cannot be used more than three times in succession.
