What is 1967 in Roman Numerals?
Royal titles, such as Henry I and Henry II, often use Roman numerals. Have you wondered what these symbols (I, II) represent? They are Roman numerals.
In ancient times, people counted using fingers, sticks, bones, etc. As life became complex, a standard form was needed for counting, and the ancient Romans used the Roman numeral system. The symbols I (1), V (5), X (10), L (50), C (100), D (500), and M (1000) are used.
To express 1967 in Roman numerals, we write it as MCMLXVII. Let’s learn more about Roman numerals and how we write them.
Basic Rules for 1967 in Roman Numerals
There are certain basic rules to write numbers in Roman numerals. In this section, let's discuss some basic rules to remember when writing numbers in Roman numerals.
Rule 1: Addition Method
The addition method is used when a smaller numeral is placed after a larger numeral. For example, VI → V + I → 5 + 1 = 6.
Rule 2: Repetition Method
Certain Roman numerals can be repeated up to three times. For example, III → 3.
Rule 3: Subtraction Method
When a smaller numeral is placed before a larger numeral, we subtract the smaller numeral from the larger one. For example, IX → X - I → 10 - 1 = 9.
Rule 4: Limitation Rule
Symbols cannot be repeated more than three times, and some symbols like V, L, and D cannot be repeated. For example, we don't write VV for 10; instead, we use X. Similarly, 8 is written as VIII, not IIIIIIII.
How to Write 1967 in Roman Numerals
Let’s now learn how to write 1967 in Roman numerals. Follow these methods to write the number in Roman numerals.
- By Expansion Method

- 1000 in Roman numerals - M
- 900 in Roman numerals - CM
- 60 in Roman numerals - LX
- 7 in Roman numerals - VII
Step 3: Combine them together: Therefore, 1967 in Roman numerals is M + CM + LX + VII = MCMLXVII.
