701 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. 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 DCCI to represent 701, where D is 500, C is 100, and I is 1.

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 a smaller number is placed after a larger number. For example, DCCI → D + C + C + I → 500 + 100 + 100 + 1 = 701

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 small number precedes a large number in Roman numerals, we subtract the smaller number from the larger number. For example, IX → X - I → 10 - 1 = 9

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 DDD for 1500; instead, we use MD.

Let’s now learn how to write 701 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 701 in Roman numerals using the expansion method. To write 701 in Roman numerals, follow the steps:

Step 1: Break the number based on the place value. Place values are ones, tens, hundreds, etc. For 701, we write it as 500 + 100 + 100 + 1

Step 2: Convert the number into Roman numerals

• 500 in Roman Numeral - D
   
• 100 in Roman Numeral - C
   
• 1 in Roman Numeral - I

Step 3: Combine the Roman numerals together. Therefore, 701 in Roman numerals is D (500) + C (100) + C (100) + I (1) = DCCI

When writing a large number in Roman numerals, we group the numbers. To write 701 in Roman numerals, we group 701 as 500 + 100 + 100 + 1

• 500 in Roman Numeral - D
   
• 100 in Roman Numeral - C
   
• 1 in Roman Numeral - I

So, 701 is written as DCCI 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 701. 

• Addition rule: The addition method is used when a large number is followed by a smaller numeral, here the values are added. For example, DCCI = D + C + C + I = 500 + 100 + 100 + 1 = 701
   
• Grouping method: Here, the numbers are grouped based on their place value and then converted into Roman numerals. For example, 701 = 500 + 100 + 100 + 1 = DCCI
   
• Repetition rule: Certain symbols (I, X, C, M) in the Roman numeric system can be repeated only up to three times. For example, CCC = 300 (C is repeated three times to represent the number 300)
   
• Subtraction rule: The subtraction method is used when a smaller numeral precedes a larger one, subtracting its value.
   
• Limitation rule: Symbols such as V, L, and D cannot be repeated.
