CDLXXV
CDLXXV is a Roman numeral. To understand its value, we break down the Roman numeral system. The system uses letters to represent numbers: I for 1, V for 5, X for 10, L for 50, C for 100, D for 500, and M for 1000. When a numeral of smaller value precedes a numeral of larger value, it is subtracted. Otherwise, the values are added.
In CDLXXV, we have the following sequence: C, D, L, X, X, V.
First, consider CD. Since C (100) is less than D (500), we subtract C from D, resulting
Next, we have LXX. Since X (10) is less than L (50), but the Xs follow the
Finally, we have V, which represents 5.
Combining these parts, we add the values of CD, LXX, and V: 400 + 70 + 5 = 475.
