64 in Roman Numerals

The royal titles, such as Henry I, Henry II, and so on, use Roman numerals. Have you noticed these symbols and wondered what they represent? Those are Roman numerals.

In ancient times, people used fingers, sticks, bones, etc., to count. When life became complex, a standard form was required to count. Ancient Romans used the Roman numeral system to count. I (1), V (5), X (10), L (50), C (100), D (500), and M (1000) are the symbols we use to count.

In Roman numerals, we use LXIV to represent 64, where L is 50, X is 10, IV is 4. Let’s learn more about Roman numerals and how we write them.

There are certain basic rules to write a number in Roman numerals. In this section, let’s discuss some basic rules that need to be remembered when writing a number in Roman numerals.

Rule 1: Addition Method

The addition method is used when the smaller number is placed after the larger number. For example, LX → L + X → 50 + 10 = 60.

Rule 2: Repetition Method

To write a larger number, certain Roman numerals can be repeated up to three times. For example, XXX → 30.

Rule 3: Subtraction Method

If a smaller number is placed before a larger number, we subtract the smaller number from the larger number. For example, IV → 5 - 1 = 4.

Rule 4: Limitation Rule

Roman numerals cannot be repeated more than three times, and some symbols like V, L, and D cannot be repeated. For example, we won't write LL for 100; instead, we use C.

Let’s now learn how to write 64 in Roman numerals. Follow these methods to write the number in Roman numerals.

• By Expansion Method  
• By Grouping Method

In the expansion method, based on the place value, the number is broken down. In this section, we will learn how to write 64 in Roman numerals using the expansion method.

To write 64 in Roman numerals, follow these steps:

Step 1: Break the number based on the place value. Place value refers to ones, tens, hundreds, etc.

For 64, we write it as 50 + 10 + 4.

Step 2: Convert each number into Roman numerals:

50 in Roman numerals is L.
10 in Roman numerals is X.
4 in Roman numerals is IV.

Step 3: Combine the Roman numerals together.

Therefore, 64 in Roman numerals is L (50) + X (10) + IV (4) = LXIV.

When writing a large number in Roman numerals, we group the number. To write 64 in Roman numerals, we group 64 as 50 + 10 + 4:

• 50 in Roman numerals is L.
   
• 10 in Roman numerals is X.
   
• 4 in Roman numerals is IV.

So, 64 is written as LXIV in Roman numerals.

Roman numerals follow a certain pattern, making them look similar. In this section, we will learn some numbers related to the Roman numeral 64:

• Addition method: The addition method is used when a larger number is followed by a smaller numeral, adding their values. For example, LX = L + X = 50 + 10 = 60.

• Grouping method: Here, the given numbers are grouped based on their place value and then converted into Roman numerals. For example, 64 = 50 + 10 + 4 = LXIV.

• Repetition rule: Certain symbols (I, X, C, M) in the Roman numeral system can be repeated only up to three times. For example, III = 3 (I is repeated three times to represent the number 3).

• Subtraction method: The subtraction method is used when a smaller number precedes a larger number. For example, IV = 5 - 1 = 4.

• Limitation rule: Roman numeral symbols like V, L, and D cannot be repeated. For example, 100 is written as C instead of LL.
