Give me any Roman Numeral less than 5,000 and I will solve it without any help.
For those who have little to no experience with Roman Numerals: I - 1 V - 5 X - 10 L - 50 C - 100 D - 500 M - 1000

Quote:This is not a valid roman numeral number; there is an M after the C, which is not a valid use of the number: Although you can put larger numbers such as X after a small number such as I, it cannot be used with thousands. And that's why I never should mess around with Roman Numerals.

Isn't CD valid? How would you express 400?
