What is the roman numeral for dm?
The question doesn't make any sense. Do you mean what is the Arabic number corresponding to the Roman numeral DM?
he Romans themselves didn't use shortcuts, and DM would just be 1500 (as would MD ... order didn't matter, you just added up the values).
Under the shortcut rules developed in the middle ages, DM would be D less than M. The problem is that no one would write it that way; since D is 500 and M is 1000, DM is exactly the same as the simpler and shorter D.
What does MXXX stand for in roman numerals?
MXXX
M = 1000

What is ccclll in Roman Numerals?
No such Roman numeral as 'ccclll'. Roman Numerals are ALWAYS written in Capital letters, so I think you mean 'CCCIII'.
C = 100 (Centum) as in 'Century, Cents(coinage) etc.,
Hence
CCC = 100 + 100 + 100 = 300
I = 1
Hence
III = 1+1+1 = 3
It follows that
CCCIII = 300+3 = 303
What does vXXX represent in Roman numerals?
In Roman numerals, "vXXX" is not a standard or valid notation. Roman numerals follow specific rules and conventions for their notation. Here is a brief explanation of how Roman numerals work:
- I = 1
- V = 5
- X = 10
- L = 50
- C = 100
- D = 500
- M = 1000
When combining these symbols, there are rules such as:
Smaller numbers before larger numbers indicate subtraction (e.g., IV = 4).
Smaller numbers after larger numbers indicate addition (e.g., VI = 6).
The notation "vXXX" does not conform to these rules. Roman numerals are typically written in uppercase letters, and lowercase "v" is not standard.
If we correct the notation to "VXXX", it would represent 5 (V) followed by three tens (XXX), which is:
- V = 5
- XXX = 30
So, "VXXX" would be 5 + 30 = 35.

What is MMD in roman numerals?
MMD = 2500
NB
M = 1000
MM = 1000 + 1000 2000

What are the numeral of number of 2599?
If you mean the Roman Numeral of 2599 then it is
MMDIC
Further
M = 1000
MM = 1000 + 1000 = 2000
D = 500
IC = 100 - 1 = 99
NB When a smaller value numeral is to the left of a larger value numeral, it means subtract. Hence 'I = 1' is smaller than 'C = 100' . Hence IC = 100 - 1 = 99
