In today's terms the Roman numerals from 1 to a 1000 are:
Units from 1 to 9: I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, VIII, IX
Tens from 10 to 90: X, XX, XXX, XL, L, LX, LXX, LXXX, XC
Hundreds from 100 to 900: C, CC, CCC, CD, D, DC, DCC, DCCC, CM
Thousand: M
To select a number simply write out the hundreds followed by the tens and then the units.
Examples: 943 = CM+XL+III = CMXLIII and 19 = X+IX = XIX
Note that the way we work out Roman numerals today is probably not in the same way as the Romans themselves did.

What number does this roman numeral represent mlii?
M is 1000 and L is 50. That would give you 1052.
Two number which multiply to give 1000?
100 x 10=1000
Give the number 54 in roman numerals?
LIV
What number is the Roman numeral LM?
LM doesn't exist as a Roman numeral. The L and the M would never go together in that order. The L before the M would be 950 but 950 as a Roman numeral is CML. C is 100 and M is 1000. Because the C is before the M it subtracts making 900. Then the L (50) is added to make 950.
How do you know when you have all of the divisors of a number?
You can start by dividing them by consecutive numbers. If the next number is the result of a division it means you're done I'll find the divisors of 1000 1000 / 1 = 1000 1000 / 2 = 500 1000 / 4 = 250 1000 / 5 = 200 1000 / 8 = 125 1000 / 10 = 100 1000 / 20 = 50 1000 / 25 = 40 Now I'm done because the next number I could divide 1000 by is 40 but since I already have 40 it means I'm done You can factorize the number too and use it to help you. 1000 = 2^3 x 5^3 by the way By the way if the number is a square you divide it by every number you can until you reach its square root
