How MMMCCXXIX is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 3000 | MMM |
| Hundreds | 200 | CC |
| Tens | 20 | XX |
| Units | 9 | I (subtracted)X |
| Total | 3229 | MMMCCXXIX |
MMMCCXXIX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + CC (200) + XX (20) + IX (9) = 3229.
IX is the only subtraction: the I before the X takes away 1, so IX = 9.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMCCXXVIIII
Why isn't 3229 written as MMMCCXXVIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 9 is IX (10 − 1), not VIIII, so 3229 is MMMCCXXIX.
