The first thing you need to do is find the biggest Roman numeral that is either less than or the same as the number.
In this instance, the letter M is the greatest Roman number that is either lower than 2005 or is equal to 2005. (1000).
Step 2: Choose the value of the Roman numeral that is biggest and subtract it from the number.
2005 – 1000 = 1005
Step 3: Using the value that is left over, repeat steps 1 and 2 as many times as necessary until you get to zero.
M is the greatest Roman numeral that is either lower than 1005 or of equivalent value to this number (1000).
1005 – 1000 = 5
V is the greatest Roman number that is less than or equal to 5, and it is the fifth letter of the alphabet (5).
Step 4: Write the Roman numeral symbols that match to the numbers.
As the letter M stands for 1000 and the letter V stands for 5, we can write the year 2005 in Roman numerals as MMV.
As a result, the year 2005 may be expressed using the Roman numerals MMV.
In conclusion, if the procedure is broken down into phases, writing a number using Roman numerals may be a simple and uncomplicated endeavour. You can easily write any number in Roman numerals by finding the largest Roman numeral that is either less than or equal to the number, and then subtracting the value of that Roman numeral from the number.
