The Roman numerals of MDCCCC are equivalent to 1900 in Hindu-Arabic numerals.
MDCCCC.
MDCCC = 1800 in decimal notation M = 1000 D = 500 CCC = 300
MDCCCC or CMM and not MCM as you most probably be told it is.actually, it is incorrect to repeat a roman numeral letter four times. MCM is correct. M=1000. CM=900.
It would be 1900 (1000 +500 +100 +100 +100 +100), but it's not usually written that way. It's shorter to write it this way: MCM (1000 -100 +1000)

Today's way of converting 1900 and 1912 into Roman numerals is MCM and MCMXII respectively. However, the Romans themselves in ancient times would have probably wrote out 1900 and 1912 as MDCCCC and MDCCCCXII respectively.
Under today's guidelines governing the Roman numeral system 1999 converted into Roman numerals is officially MCMXCIX which doesn't seem to add up because:- 1000 = M which is M 900 = CM which is a simplification of DCCCC 90 = XC which is a simplification of LXXXX 9 = IX which is a simplification of VIIII And:- M+CM = CMM which is a simplification of MDCCCC (1900) CMM+XC = XMM which is a simplification of MDCCCCLXXXX (1990) XMM+IX = IMM which is a simplification of MDCCCCLXXXXVIIII (1999) Or:- M+DCCCC = MDCCCC MDCCCC+LXXXX = MDCCCCLXXXX MDCCCCLXXXX+VIIII = MDCCCCLXXXXVIIII Now consider the following:- M+CM+XC+IX = IMM (2000-1) CM+XC+IX+M = IMM XC+IX+M+CM = IMM IX+M+CM+XC = IMM No matter how the above numerals are arranged they will always add up to IMM or MDCCCCLXXXXVIIII in expanded format. Examples of simplification of Roman numerals can be found in the book entitled 'History of Mathematics' volume 2 by David Eugene Smith first published in 1925 and ISBN 0486 204 308. For instance LXXXVIIIIS (89.5) is simplified to SXC (100-10.5) Therefore it follows that for 1999 in Roman numerals IMM is more plausible than MCMXCIX.
Nowadays we would convert 1900 into Roman numerals as MCM but the ancient Romans would have probably worked out the given numbers as follows:-X+CMM+XC = MM => 10+(2000-100)+(100-10) = 2000X+MDCCCC+LXXXX = MM => 10+1900+90 = 2000QED
To add Roman numerals, follow these steps: Convert each number to its Roman numeral equivalent. 1000 = M, 900 = CM, 90 = XC, 12 = XII, 9 = IX. Add the Roman numerals together: M + CM + XC + XII + IX = (1000 + 900 + 90 + 12 + 9) = 2011. So, the sum of 1000, 900, 90, 12, and 9 in Roman numerals is MMXI.
(positive number) x (positive number) = positive number (positive number)/(positive number) = positive number (positive number) x ( negative number) = negative number (positive number)/( negative number) = negative number (negative number) x (negative number) = positive number (negative number)/(negative number) = positive number
atomic number = number of proton in an element number of proton = number of electron mass number = number of proton + number of neutron therefore... atomic number = mass number - number of neutrons
A positive number. Positive Number x Positive Number = Positive Number Positive Number x Negative Number = Negative Number Negative Number x Negative Number = Positive Number
