Roman Numerals Puzzle

Reader, whether man or woman
Write my age in figures Roman
Three lettered units then you'll find
Each of the different in kind;
The first divided by the second
Will give the third, if rightly reckoned
Ten times the whole will let you see
My University degree

LXV or 65. 10 times 65 is 650 or DCL (Doctor of Civil Law).
