<p>The<a>addition</a>method is used when the smaller number is placed after the larger number. For example, DCCCLXXV → D + CCC + L + XX + V → 500 + 300 + 50 + 20 + 5 = 875</p>

<p>If a small number precedes a large number in Roman Numerals, we subtract the smaller number from the large number. This is the<a>subtraction</a>method. For example, IV → V - I → 5 - 1 = 4</p>
