Frequently Asked Questions

Subtractive notation is used to avoid repeating a symbol more than 3 times. For example, 4 is written as IV (5−1) instead of IIII. The valid subtractive pairs are: IV=4, IX=9, XL=40, XC=90, CD=400, CM=900. Only one smaller-value symbol may precede a larger one.

Standard Roman numerals go up to 3999 (MMMCMXCIX) using the 7 basic symbols. Numbers 4000 and above require a vinculum (overline) notation or alternative systems which are not universally standardized.

No, Roman numerals have no representation for zero. The concept of zero was not part of ancient Roman mathematics. The word "nulla" (nothing) was used, but there was no numeric symbol for it.
