Frequently asked questions

How do Roman numerals work?

Seven letters stand for numbers: I is 1, V is 5, X is 10, L is 50, C is 100, D is 500 and M is 1000. Letters are added, and a smaller letter in front of a bigger one is subtracted, so IV is 4 and IX is 9.

What is 2026 in Roman numerals?

MMXXVI: MM is 2000, XX is 20 and VI is 6.

Why does the tool stop at 3999?

Standard Roman numerals use at most three of the same letter in a row, so MMMCMXCIX (3999) is the largest number that can be written.

Is there a Roman numeral for zero?

No. The Romans had no symbol for zero. Sometimes N for nulla is used in later texts.
