Is the Roman numeral CCCXXIX valid or not? How to convert CCCXXIX? Write it as a Hindu-Arabic number. Turn the number written with letters (symbols) in the Roman numeral system

Is the entered Roman numeral, CCCXXIX, valid or not?

How to convert the Roman numeral:
CCCXXIX
written as a Hindu-Arabic number
(the numbers we use every day)

1. The Roman numerals used to make the conversion:

I = 1; X = 10; C = 100;

The basic reading rules of the Roman numerals

The numerals and the groups of numerals written in subtractive notation must be written from left to right, in descending order, by their value, from high to low. Some symbols (letters) can be repeated up to 3 times in a row: I, X, C, M, (X), (C), (M).

A group of Roman numerals written in subtractive notation = a group of two numerals (two letters), one of a lower value preceding another larger one. The only allowed subtractive groups are these: IV, IX, XL, XC, CD, CM, M(V), M(X), (X)(L), (X)(C), (C)(D), (C)(M). To calculate the value of a group subtract the value of the first symbol from the value of the second.
The subtractive notation in the writing of the Roman numerals

A group of Roman numerals written in additive notation = a group of two or more numerals (letters), of equal value or sorted in descending order, by their value, from high to low. To calculate the value of the group, add up the values of the symbols that make up the group.
The additive notation in the writing of the Roman numerals


CCCXXIX is a valid Roman numeral.

CCCXXIX meets all the rules of writing Roman numerals.


2. Identify the groups of symbols written in subtractive notation.

Identify and calculate the value of each group of any two symbols (any two letters) written in subtractive notation:

CCCXXIX

IX = X - I = 10 - 1 = 9;


3. Calculate the value of the Roman number.

Add up all the values of the individual Roman numerals and of the groups of numerals written in subtractive notation:

CCCXXIX =

C + C + C + X + X + IX =

100 + 100 + 100 + 10 + 10 + 9 =

329


CCCXXIX is a group of numerals written in additive and subtractive notation.

Check the result (reverse the process).
How to convert the number 329

1. Break the number down to place value subgroups (decompose it):

329 =

300 + 20 + 9;


2. Convert each subgroup:

300 = 100 + 100 + 100 = C + C + C = CCC;

20 = 10 + 10 = X + X = XX;

9 = 10 - 1 = X - I = IX;


3. Wrap up the Roman numeral (construct it):

329 =

300 + 20 + 9 =

CCC + XX + IX =

CCCXXIX;


The final answer:

CCCXXIX is a valid Roman numeral.

CCCXXIX = 329

The set of basic symbols of the Roman system of writing numerals

The major set of symbols on which the rest of the Roman numberals were built:

(*) These numbers were written with an overline (a bar above) or between two vertical lines. Instead, we prefer to write these larger numerals between brackets, ie: "(" and ")", because:

(*) An overline (a bar over the symbol), two vertical lines or two brackets around the symbol indicate "1,000 times". See below...

Logic of the numerals written between brackets, ie: (L) = 50,000; the rule is that the initial numeral, in our case, L, was multiplied by 1,000: L = 50 => (L) = 50 × 1,000 = 50,000. Simple.

(*) At the beginning Romans did not use numbers larger than 3,999; as a result they had no symbols in their system for these larger numbers, they were added on later and for them various different notations were used, not necessarily the ones we've just seen above.

Thus, initially, the largest number that could be written using Roman numerals was:
