heya friend
we use only 10 main number to write numbers from 0 to infinity same as here are same main numbers
10+5=15
10 is not written as VV their is separate symbol for 10 it is X
so 15 is written as XV
not as VVV
therefore we don't write 10 as VVV
hope it helps you

Although using VVV to represent 15 isn't technically wrong, Roman numerals are usually used to express a number as letters in the shortest way possible (which makes it easier to calculate), thats why instead of using IIII to show 4 its shown as IV. This applies to 15 and VVV, in the sense that you could express it as XV rather than VVV since its shorter.
