How MDCCXXIX is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 1000 | M |
| Hundreds | 700 | DCC |
| Tens | 20 | XX |
| Units | 9 | I (subtracted)X |
| Total | 1729 | MDCCXXIX |
MDCCXXIX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: M (1000) + DCC (700) + XX (20) + IX (9) = 1729.
IX is the only subtraction: the I before the X takes away 1, so IX = 9.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MDCCXXVIIII
Why isn't 1729 written as MDCCXXVIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 9 is IX (10 − 1), not VIIII, so 1729 is MDCCXXIX.
