Under today's rules governing the Roman numeral system the equivalent of 59 in Roman numerals is notated as LIX. But during the Roman era 59 was notated as LVIIII which can be simplified to ILX (60-1) in written format.
How do you write 59 as roman numeral?
In todays modern formation of Roman numerals 59 is LIX But the ancient Romans would have worked out the equivalent of59 as LVIIII and simplified it to ILX in written form which means 60-1 = 59
What is the Roman numeral for 59?
Today we write it out as LIX but the Romans themselves would have probably wrote it out as ILX (-1+60 = 59) because the Latin word for 59 is "undesexaginta" which literally means one from sixty.
Is LIX in roman numerals equal to 54 correct?
No, 59: L=50 I=1 X=10 LIV is 54. No, these numerals are supposed to represent 59 but they should be written down as LVIIII (59) or ILX (60-1). Four IIII's is never used in Roman numerals, 59 is LIX.
What is 149 plus 59 added in two different ways and 149 minus 59 subtracted in two different ways but working out all four calculations in Roman numerals?
Under the rules as we now know them today governing the Roman numeral system that were introduced during the Middle Ages long after the fall and decline of the Roman Empire it is now reckoned that 149 and 59 when converted into Roman numerals are CXLIX and LIX respectively which does not quite easily lend themselves towards mathematical interactivity with each other or any other numerals for that matter but it's now possible to glean from reliable historical sources that the ancient Romans would have probably calculated the given numbers as in any of the following formats:- CXXXXVIIII+LVIIII = CCVIII => 149+59 = 208 ICL+ILX = CCVIII => (-1+150)+(-1+60) = 208 CXXXXVIIII-LVIIII = LXXXX => 149-59 = 90 ICL-ILX = XC => (-1+150)-(1+60) = (-10+100) => 90
