Example: 2010 to Roman numerals
Step 1: Quinary to decimal
Multiply each digit by 5 to the power of its position (0 on the right), then add:
| Digit | Place value | Digit × place |
|---|---|---|
2 | 53 = 125 | 250 |
0 | 52 = 25 | 0 |
1 | 51 = 5 | 5 |
0 | 50 = 1 | 0 |
250 + 0 + 5 + 0 = 255
Step 2: Decimal to Roman numerals
Take away the largest Roman value that fits, write its symbol, and repeat until nothing is left:
| Remaining | Take away | Write |
|---|---|---|
| 255 | 100 | C |
| 155 | 100 | C |
| 55 | 50 | L |
