<h2>Basic Rules for Finding LXII in Roman Numerals</h2>

<p><strong>Rule 1: Addition Method -</strong>In the<a>addition</a>method, you will combine different Roman numerals. When a smaller or the same number is placed after the larger number, we will simply add it - LXII(62) = L(50) + X (10) + II(2))</p>

11
<p>LXII(62) = L(50) + X (10) + II(2)) LXIII(63) = L(50) + X (10) + IIII(3)) We can’t write LXIIII for 64 , it's LXIV (64)</p>

12
<p><strong>Rule 3: Subtraction Method -</strong>From the repetition method, we got to know that a symbol can’t be used more than 3 times, then how will we write LXIV ? Here in Roman numerals, we will use the<a>subtraction</a>method. If the smaller numeral is placed before the larger numeral, then you have to subtract the smaller numeral from the larger numeral. For example, in LXIV (64), there are two parts: LX (60) and IV (4). 60 (L(50) + X(10)= LX(60)) and IV (V - I). Which results in LXIV (64) = L(50) + X (10)+IV(4)</p>

<p><strong>Rule 4: Limitation Rule -</strong>In Roman Numerals we can't repeat a number more than 3 times. After that, we have to use different symbols. Here you will use<a>addition and subtraction</a>methods. For example - we can't write 4 as IIII, instead we write IV (subtraction method subtracting I(1) from V(5) to get IV(4). For 10, we use X. Here, we can't use VV because there are specific letters assigned to the values, for example (V - 5, X- 10, L - 50, C - 100, D - 500, M - 1000) we have to use these symbols for the specific values. These rules make it easy for us to use the numeral system. </p>

16
<p><strong>Expansion Method:</strong>In this method, we will break the Roman numeral into smaller parts based on their values and then add them. For example, LXII is made up of 3 parts that are 50, 10 and 2. 60 can be written as LX(L(50) + X (10)). 2 can be written as II. Now if we add it LX(L(50) + X (10)) + II(2) = LXII(62).</p>
