267 in Roman Numerals

The royal titles, such as Henry I, Henry II, and so on, use Roman numerals. Have you noticed the names and wondered what these symbols (I and II) represented? Those are Roman numerals. In ancient times, people used fingers, sticks, bones, etc., to count. When life became more complex, a standard form was required for counting. Ancient Romans used the Roman numeral system for this purpose. The symbols used in this system are I (1), V (5), X (10), L (50), C (100), D (500), and M (1000).

In Roman numerals, we use CCLXVII to represent 267, where C is 100, L is 50, X is 10, V is 5, and II is 2. Let’s learn more about Roman numerals and how we write them.

There are certain basic rules for writing numbers 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 a smaller number is placed after a larger number. For example, CCLXVII → C + C + L + X + V + I + I → 100 + 100 + 50 + 10 + 5 + 1 + 1 = 267

Rule 2: Repetition Method

To write a large number, certain Roman numerals can be repeated up to three times. For example, CCC → 300.

Rule 3: Subtraction Method

If a smaller number precedes a larger number in Roman numerals, the smaller number is subtracted from the larger number. For example, XL → L - X → 50 - 10 = 40

Rule 4: Limitation Rule

Symbols cannot be repeated more than three times, and some symbols like V, L, and D cannot be repeated. For example, we won't write VV for 10; instead, we use X. For 8, we write VIII, not IIIIIIII.

Let’s now learn how to write 267 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 267 in Roman numerals using the expansion method.

To write 267 in Roman numerals, follow the steps:

Step 1: Break the number based on the place value (ones, tens, hundreds, etc.)  

For 267, write it as 200 + 60 + 7

Step 2: Convert the numbers into Roman numerals  

200 in Roman Numerals — CC  

60 in Roman Numerals — LX  

7 in Roman Numerals — VII  

Step 3: Combine the Roman numerals together  

Therefore, 267 in Roman Numerals is CC (200) + LX (60) + VII (7) = CCLXVII

When writing a large number in Roman Numerals, we group the number.  

To write 267 in Roman Numerals, we group 267 as 200 + 60 + 7  

200 in Roman Numerals — CC

 
60 in Roman Numerals — LX

 
7 in Roman Numerals — VII

 
So, 267 is written as CCLXVII 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 267.

• Addition rule: The addition method is used when a large number is followed by a smaller numeral; here, the values are added. For example, CCLXVII = CC + LX + VII = 200 + 60 + 7 = 267.
   
• Grouping method: Here, the given number is grouped based on its place value and then we convert each group into its Roman numerals. For example, 267 = 200 + 60 + 7 = CCLXVII.
   
• Repetition rule: Certain symbols (I, X, C, M) in the Roman numeric system can be repeated up to three times. For example, CCC = 300 (C is repeated three times to represent 300).
   
• Subtraction rule: The subtraction method is used when a smaller numeral precedes a larger numeral. For example, XL = L - X = 50 - 10 = 40.
   
• Limitation rule: Some symbols, like V, L, and D, cannot be repeated. For example, we do not write VV for 10; instead, we use X.
