MMCCXXXIX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + CC (200) + XXX (30) + IX (9) = 2239.

IX is the only subtraction: the I before the X takes away 1, so IX = 9.

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMCCXXXVIIII

Why isn't 2239 written as MMCCXXXVIIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 9 is IX (10 − 1), not VIIII, so 2239 is MMCCXXXIX.
