114 in Roman Numerals

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

Roman numerals are the way of expressing numbers using symbols. I, V, X, L, C, D, and M are the symbols we use. Roman Numerals are used in royal titles, book names, sequences, and so on. Here we will be discussing Roman Numerals, rules, and examples.

What is 114 in Roman Numerals?

The royal titles, such as Henry I, Henry II, and so on. Have you noticed the names and wondered what these symbols (I and II) represented? Those are the Roman Numerals. Earlier people used to count using fingers, sticks, bones, etc. to count earlier. 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 CXIV to represent 114, here C is 100, X is 10, and IV is 4. Let’s learn more about Roman numerals and how we write them.114 in roman numerals

Basic Rules for 114 in Roman Numerals

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, CX → C + X → 100 + 10 = 110.

 

Rule 2: Repetition Method

 

To write a large number, there are certain Roman Numerals that can be repeated three times. III → 3.

 

Rule 3: Subtraction Method

 

If a smaller number is followed by a larger number in Roman Numerals, we subtract the smaller number from the larger number. For example, IV → V - I → 5 - 1 = 4.

 

Rule 4: Limitation Rule


The 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, and 8 we write as VIII not IIIIIIII.

How to Write 114 in Roman Numerals

Let’s now learn how to write 114 in Roman Numerals. Follow these methods to write the number in Roman Numerals. 

 

By Expansion Method
By Grouping Method

Professor Greenline from BrightChamps

114 in Roman Numeral by Expansion Method

In the expansion method, based on the place value, the number is broken down. In this section, we will learn how to write 114 in Roman numerals using the expansion method.

 

To write 114 in Roman Numerals, follow the steps,

 

Step 1: The number is broken based on the place value. Place values are ones, tens, hundreds, etc.

 

For 114 we write it as 100 + 10 + 4.


Step 2: Converting the number into Roman Numerals


    100 in Roman Numeral — C
    10 in Roman Numeral — X
    4 in Roman Numeral — IV


Step 3: Combining the Roman Numerals together.


    Therefore, 114 in Roman Numeral is C (100) + X (10) + IV (4) = CXIV.

114 in Roman Numeral by Grouping Method

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

 

To write 114 in Roman Numerals, we group 114 as 100 + 10 + 4.


100 in Roman Numeral — C
10 in Roman Numeral — X
4 in Roman Numeral — IV


So, 114 is written as CXIV in Roman Numerals.

Problem 2

A historian is cataloging ancient coins. He has CXIV coins, and he decides to distribute them into XVIII collections. Find the average number of coins per collection.

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

The average number of coins per collection is VI with a remainder of II.
 

Explanation

To find the average, divide the total number of coins by the number of collections.


CXIV = 114
XVIII = 18


114 / 18 = 6 remainder 2


6 in Roman numerals is VI, and the remainder is II.
