Mnemonic device for Roman Numerals; LCDM

Mnemonic Device for Roman Numerals (LCDM)

To Remember :
L = 50
C = 100
D = 500
M = 1000

Mnemonic Device Type :
Acrostics

Mnemonic Device:
Lucky Can’t Drink Milk.

Lets Collect Dirty Money[1].

Explanation :
Firstly, list out what are the things to be remembered. Then think which of the methods like Acronym, Acrostics, PMS is best. Then apply that method.

In this example we have got LCDM. Since there is not any English word like LCDM, it is better to make a sensible sentence i.e. we should create Acrostics. So, we have created a sensible sentence i.e. Lucky can’t drink milk.

We Recommend:

Remember this is one possible way of remembering. If you have another mnemonic device better than this you can use that mnemonic device.

Furthermore, if you have another mnemonic device don't forget to post as comment.
