CCXCII
292 in Roman numerals is CCXCII.

Roman numerals use seven basic symbols: I = 1, V = 5, X = 10, L = 50, C = 100, D = 500, M = 1,000. The general rule is: reading left to right, values in descending order add up. When a smaller symbol comes before a larger one, it subtracts (e.g., IV = 4), which happens in this case.

Step-by-step conversion of 292:

1. CC = 100 + 100 = 200 → C repeated 2 times.

2. XC = 100 - 10 = 90 → subtraction rule used.

3. II = 1 + 1 = 2 → I repeated 2 times.

So, 200 + 90 + 2 = 292, or CCXCII in Roman numeral form.
