Answer:

Hindu Arabic Numerals

a) CDLXII = 462

b) CCCXCIV = 394

c) CDXCIX= 499

Step-by-step explanation:

a) CDLXII = C = 100 - D = 500 = 400

+

L = 50 + X = 10 = 60

+

I = 1 + I = 1 = 2

i.e =462

b) CCCXCIV = C = 100 + C= 100 + C = 100 = 300

+

X = 10 - C = 100 =90

+

I = 1 - V = 5 = 4

i.e = 394

c) CDXCIX = C = 100 - D = 500 = 400

+

X = 10 - C = 100 = 90

+

I = 1 - X = 10 = 9

i.e = 499
