How to Convert 45 into Roman Numerals?

To convert 45 into Roman Numerals, we need to break down the number according to the available symbols, i.e., I, V, X, L, C, D, and M.

The easiest way to break down 45 is into 40 + 5. (But there is no symbol for 40.)

So, 40 can be represented as the difference between 50 and 10.

40 = 50 – 10 ( L – X) = XL

And 5 = V

45 = 50 – 10 + 5

45 = XL + V

Hence,

45 = XLV
