How MMMXLIX is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 3000 | MMM |
| Tens | 40 | X (subtracted)L |
| Units | 9 | I (subtracted)X |
| Total | 3049 | MMMXLIX |
MMMXLIX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + XL (40) + IX (9) = 3049.
XL and IX are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMIL
Why isn't 3049 written as MMMIL?
I can only be subtracted from V and X, so IL (50 − 1) is not a valid pair. Write each place separately: MMM (3000) + XL (40) + IX (9) = MMMXLIX.
Wrong: MMMXXXXIX
Why isn't 3049 written as MMMXXXXIX?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 3049 is MMMXLIX.
Wrong: MMMXLVIIII
Why isn't 3049 written as MMMXLVIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 9 is IX (10 − 1), not VIIII, so 3049 is MMMXLIX.
