Roman Numerals

Maths worksheets from urbrainy.com

We didn’t use numbers like you when


counting and doing maths. We used capital
letters, which made it much harder!

The Romans used these capital letters:

I V X L C D M
1 5 10 50 100 500 1000

These letters were put together to form all the numbers, like this:

I=1 II = 2 III = 3 IV = 4 V=5


VI = 6 VII = 7 VIII = 8 IX = 9

There are two rules you need to know:


1. put a letter after a larger one means you add it.

2. put a letter before a larger one means you take it away.

So XI is 10 + 1 = 11 and IX is 10 -1 = 9
CX is 100 + 10 = 110 and XC is 100 - 10 = 90
Work out what numbers these Roman numerals represent:

1. VIII = 2. IV = 3. XII = 4. XV =

5. LX = 6. XL = 7. XIV = 8. XVII =
Write these numbers in Roman numerals:

9. 13 = 10. 22 = 11. 30 = 12. 49 =

13. 25 = 14. 101 = 15. 99 = 16. 90 =
