<p>To meet their daily commerce and administration needs, the ancient Romans developed Roman Numerals. It used a combination of seven symbols - I, V, X, L, C, D, and M to represent numbers. Roman numerals were used to record transactions, keep track of data, and label military units. In this topic, we are going to learn about the Roman numeral MDCCCXCVI.</p>

<p>Ancient Romans discovered that counting fingers could get very complicated after 10. So to overcome the complexity, the Roman numeric system was developed. This was widely used throughout Europe as a standard writing system until the late Middle Ages. Seven<a>symbols</a>are used to represent<a>numbers</a>in the Roman numeric system - I, V, X, L, C, D, and M. The numerals are made up of different<a>combinations</a>of these symbols. MDCCCXCVI in Roman numerals can be written in number form by adding the values of each Roman numeral, i.e., MDCCCXCVI = 1896.</p>

<h3><strong>Rule 1: Addition Method:</strong></h3>
10
-
<h3>When a larger symbol is followed by a smaller symbol, we add the numerals to each other. For example, in VIII, we have 5 + 3 = 8.</h3>
11
-
<h3><strong>Rule 2: Repetition Method:</strong></h3>
12
-
<p>A symbol that is repeated three times in continuation increases the value of the numeral. For example, XXX = 30.</p>
13
-
<h3><strong>Rule 3: Subtraction Method:</strong></h3>
14
-
<p>We use the<a>subtraction</a>method when a larger symbol follows a smaller symbol. For example, XL = 40 (which is 50 - 10).</p>
15
-
<h3><strong>Rule 4: Limitation Rule:</strong></h3>
16
-
<p>Symbols cannot be repeated more than three times, and some symbols, such as V, L, and D cannot be repeated more than once. For example, 10 is represented as X and not VV.</p>

<h3>MDCCCXCVI in Roman Numeral by Expansion Method</h3>
24
-
<p>The breaking down of Roman numerals into parts and then converting them into numerals is what we call the expansion method. The expansion method is the breaking down of Roman numerals into numerical form and adding them to get the final number.</p>
25
-
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Break the Roman numerals into parts.</p>
26
-
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now write each of the Roman numerals with its numerical digit in the<a>place value</a>.</p>
27
-
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Add the numerals together.</p>
28
-
<p>For<strong>MDCCCXCVI,</strong></p>
29
-
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>First, we break the Roman numerals. MDCCCXCVI = M + D + C + C + C + XC + VI</p>
30
-
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Write the Roman Numerals for each part The Roman Numeral M is 1000 The Roman Numeral D is 500 The Roman Numeral C is 100 The Roman Numeral XC is 90 The Roman Numeral VI is 6</p>
31
-
<p><strong>Step 3:</strong>Combine all the numbers M + D + C + C + C + XC + VI = 1000 + 500 + 100 + 100 + 100 + 90 + 6 = 1896. Therefore, the Roman Numeral MDCCCXCVI is 1896.</p>
32

<h3>MDCCCXCVI in Roman Numeral by Grouping Method</h3>
33
-
<p>Using subtraction and<a>addition</a>rules, we will apply the grouping method. This means we break the Roman numerals into smaller groups, which makes it easier to work with. This method groups the Roman numerals logically, and then we write the numbers for each group.</p>
34
-
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>Take the largest number and write the number for that Roman numeral.</p>
35
-
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Write the Roman numeral using the subtraction and addition rules.</p>
36
-
<p>Example: Let’s take the Roman numeral<strong>MDCCCXCVI.</strong></p>
37
-
<p><strong>Step 1:</strong>The larger Roman numerals are what we will begin with. Once split, the Roman numerals we get are M, DCCC, XC, and VI. The numeral for M is 1000 The numeral for DCCC is 800 The numeral for XC is 90 The numeral for VI is 6</p>
38
-
<p><strong>Step 2:</strong>Now we need to either add or subtract the smaller number, depending on its place.</p>
39
-
<p>Here we add DCCC, XC, and VI to M and we will get MDCCCXCVI. Therefore, the numeral of MDCCCXCVI is 1896.</p>
