MMMCLXIX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + C (100) + LX (60) + IX (9) = 3169.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMMCLXVIIII

Why isn't 3169 written as MMMCLXVIIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 9 is IX (10 − 1), not VIIII, so 3169 is MMMCLXIX.
