Detailed explanation-1: -Because all the note-to-note relationships in music are permanent, you can use symbols as a time-saving shorthand to understand how chords work in your music. Roman numerals are the symbols most commonly used to describe how chords work within keys.
Detailed explanation-2: -The numeral indicates the scale degree (scale step) of the root of the chord. The format of the roman numeral indicates the chord quality, as follows: In major keys, I, IV, and V are major; ii, iii, and vi are minor; and the leading tone chord is diminished.
Detailed explanation-3: -Typically, uppercase Roman numerals (such as I, IV, V) are used to represent major chords, while lowercase Roman numerals (such as ii, iii, vi) are used to represent minor chords (see Major and Minor below for alternative notations).
