DXIX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: D (500) + X (10) + IX (9) = 519.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: DXVIIII

Why isn't 519 written as DXVIIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 9 is IX (10 − 1), not VIIII, so 519 is DXIX.
