About the Roman Numeral Converter

Roman numerals use combinations of the letters I, V, X, L, C, D and M to represent numbers from 1 to 3,999. Larger values are typically written first, with a smaller value placed before a larger one to indicate subtraction (like IV for 4).

Formula: Repeatedly subtract the largest possible Roman value (from M=1000 down to I=1, including subtractive pairs like CM=900 and IV=4) and append its symbol.

Select a direction, enter your number or numeral, and get an instant conversion — handy for clock faces, book chapters, movie sequels and historical dates.
