CCLXV
CCLXV is the Roman numeral representation of the number 265. In the Roman numeral system, C represents 100, L represents 50, and X represents 10. The numerals are typically arranged from largest to smallest value. Therefore, CCLXV is broken down as C (100) + C (100) + L (50) + X (10) + V (5), which sums to 265. This system was widely used in ancient Rome and continued to be employed in various contexts throughout the Middle Ages and into the modern era, often for numbering chapters, years, or in specific naming conventions. The use of subtractive notation, where a smaller numeral precedes a larger one to indicate subtraction (e.g., IV for 4), is not present in CCLXV. Instead, it follows the additive principle of combining the values of the individual symbols.
