Decoding DXCVII: The Breakdown

In DXCVII, let's break down the primary symbols and apply the addition rule of Roman numerals. D = 500, C = 100, X = 10, V = 5 and I = 1.

Hence, DXCVII = D + XC + V + I + I

DXCVII = D + (C – X) + V + I + I

DXCVII = 500 + (100 – 10) + 5 + 1 + 1

DXCVII = 500 + 90 + 7

DXCVII = 597

Therefore, 597 is represented as DXCVII in Roman numerals.
