CDLXIX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: CD (400) + LX (60) + IX (9) = 469.

CD and IX are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.

Common mistakes

Wrong: CCCCLXIX

Why isn't 469 written as CCCCLXIX?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 469 is CDLXIX.

Wrong: CDLXVIIII

Why isn't 469 written as CDLXVIIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 9 is IX (10 − 1), not VIIII, so 469 is CDLXIX.

Wrong: CCCCLXVIIII

Why isn't 469 written as CCCCLXVIIII?

No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so CCCC and VIIII are not used: 400 = CD, 9 = IX. Together they make CDLXIX.
