Roman Number System and conversion of European into Roman System



Number system is the mathematical way of representing the things, items by symbols.
For e.g.  In European Number system we represent the numbers of apple in following way
   

Roman numeral is the earliest number system that is still in use. 

                                                                                                                                  



European Number
Roman number
1
I
2
II
3
III
4
IV
5
V
6
VI
7
VII
8
VIII
9
IX
10
X

If we want to represent ten apples in roman number than we use X.In following table we will get more idea about Roman numbers
                             

 
NOTE:-  The plus sign using in roman is only indicative it does not means addition I am using it here to represent joining of adjoining roman numbers
                      10 + 1 = 11
                       X + I = XI
Now  14
                 10 + 4 = 14
                  X + IV = XIV

Now 84
                  80 + 4 = 84
                  50 + 10 + 10 + 10 + 4
                  L   + X + X + X + IV
                    LXXXIV

              10+1=11
                 X+I=XI
              10+2=12
                 X+II=XII
              10+3=13
                 X+III=XIII
              10+4=14
                 X+IV=XIV
               10+5=15
                  X+V=XV
               10+6=16
                  X+VI=XVI
               10+7=17 
                  X+VII=XVII
               10+8=18
                  X+VIII=XVIII
               10+9=19
                  X+IX  = XIX
               10+10=20
                  X+X  = XX

How to convert European number into Roman Number system.
1.    Cram the  basic numbers in Roman system like 1 = I, 5= V, 10= X
          I=1
          V=5
          X=10
          L=50
          C=100
          D=500
          M=1000



2.    Get the base and add the number
For .e.g. 1045
1000+ 40 +5
             M + XL+ V
           MXLV
