CDLXII is the Roman numeral representation for the number 462. In the Roman numeral system, letters are used to signify values, where "C" stands for 100, "D" for 500, "L" for 50, "X" for 10, and "II" for 2. Therefore, CDLXII can be broken down as 400 (CD) + 50 (L) + 10 (X) + 2 (II), totaling 462. Roman numerals, including CDLXII, were widely used in ancient Rome for various purposes, such as numbering pages, clock faces, and denoting years. Today, they are still seen in certain contexts, like the titles of movies or the names of monarchs, such as Queen Elizabeth II.
