📘 About the Roman Numeral Converter
Roman numerals use seven letters — I (1), V (5), X (10), L (50), C (100), D (500) and M (1000). They add up, except that a smaller numeral written before a larger one is subtracted: IV = 4, IX = 9, XL = 40, XC = 90, CD = 400, CM = 900. They still appear on clocks, book chapters, film credits and the names of monarchs and events.
Type a number to get its Roman numeral, or a Roman numeral to get the number. The breakdown shows how each part is formed, and non-standard forms such as IIII are flagged with the correct spelling.
