.

To solve this equation, we need to first convert the Roman numerals "md" to their corresponding decimal values. "M" represents 1000 and "D" represents 500, so "md" would equal 1500. Now we can plug in this value into the equation:

124x54+39+1500 = ?

Next, we can solve the multiplication first:

6686+39+1500 = ?

Then we can add:

6686+1539 = 8225

Therefore, the solution to this equation is 8225. While it may be easier to stick with 9 digits in math, Roman numerals can add a fun challenge and add variety to problem solving. It's always good to practice using different number systems!
