The rules behind the chart
Roman numerals are built from seven symbols — I, V, X, L, C, D, M — using two rules. Rule 1 (addition): equal or descending symbols add together, so XXX = 30 and LX = 60. A symbol may repeat at most three times in a row (III is fine; IIII is not — write IV instead).
Rule 2 (subtraction): I before V or X subtracts 1 (IV = 4, IX = 9); X before L or C subtracts 10 (XL = 40, XC = 90); C before D or M subtracts 100 (CD = 400, CM = 900). That is why 49 is XLIX and 99 is XCIX.
What is 50 in Roman numerals?
50 is L. Numbers around it: XLIX = 49, LI = 51.
What is 100 in Roman numerals?
100 is C — from the Latin word centum. XCIX = 99 is the number just before it.
What is 49 in Roman numerals?
49 is XLIX (50 − 10 + 10 − 1). It is never written IL — the subtraction rule only allows I before V and X.
Is there a Roman numeral for zero?
No. Roman numerals have no symbol for zero; the system starts at I (1).
