FAQ
How do I convert a number into Roman numerals?
Enter the Arabic number and the tool breaks it down into Roman symbols following the rules (for example 2024 = MMXXIV), including subtractive notation.
What are the values of Roman numeral letters?
I = 1, V = 5, X = 10, L = 50, C = 100, D = 500 and M = 1000. All other numbers are formed by combining these symbols.
What is the largest standard Roman numeral?
Standard classical notation goes up to 3999 (MMMCMXCIX), since there is no standard symbol beyond M to go higher without overline bars.
How do you write 4 and 9 in Roman numerals?
You use subtractive notation: 4 is written IV (5 minus 1) and 9 is written IX (10 minus 1), not IIII or VIIII.
