Convert Roman Numeral = MCMCMLXXXVII to Decimal
Answer: 2887
Explanation: M = 1000, D = 500, C= 100, L = 50, X = 10, V = 5, I = 1
So, Thousands + Hundreds + Tens + Ones = (M= 1000) +
(CM = 900) + (CM = 900) + (LX = 90) + (VII = 7) = 2887
Answer: 211
Explanation: Multiply each bit by its positional value
than add them: (1*2^7) + (1*2^6) + (0*2^5) + (1*2^4)
+ (0*2^3) + (0*2^2) + (1*2^1) + (1*2^0) = (128) + (64)
+ (0) + (16) + (0) + (0) + (2) +(1) = 211
