DCXXIX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: DC (600) + XX (20) + IX (9) = 629.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: DCXXVIIII

Why isn't 629 written as DCXXVIIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 9 is IX (10 − 1), not VIIII, so 629 is DCXXIX.
