How about a page on Roman numerals if we don't have one at present?

Re: Roman Numbers

On the page Roman Numerals, on the ninth line of text after the subtitle, MathIsFun wrote:

Tip: Break the number into Thousands, Hundreds Tens and Units and write down each in turn.

Hundreds Tens and Units should be Hundreds, Tens, and Units. shame


I'll be here at least once every decade.
