I X, Capital Letter "i" followed by "capital letter "x".

It's too bad they don't teach this in schools any more. Youth will see Roman numerals on forms, book chapters, exams, tests, and even clocks (analog clocks, that it). [And knowing how to read old "face clocks" is a dying art!....oh, and that begs another question for a later time!]

I like to teach kids the basic Roman numeral system because they think it is like a 'secret code'. Once you show them the letters and the rules they can "translate" between traditional numbers and Roman numerals. Then they start noticing other instances of Roman numerals in their everyday life.

Knowing a few of the symbols used in Roman numerals, helps with learning a bit of history and language. eg: Capital "c", C means one hundred....think of cent (which is 1/100 th of a dollar); or the word "centennial": celebration every 100 years etc. " M" represents a thousand, associated with "mille", in french which means one thousand, and likely some other languages.

It helps explain that there can be different number systems, not just the decimal system, which is what we all know. Anyone know what the hexa-decimal system is? Binary number system? Computer geeks (software specialists) will know!!

It's fun when you've rented an "older movie", to watch the credits at the very end, and decipher which year the movie was made in. It is almost always written in roman numerals! Why is that??

X = 10 V = 5 I = a million so XX is 20 you evaluate the I in relation with the lasts X or V so XIX is 10 and a million until now 10 so 19 XVIII is 10 then 5 then 3 (III) after 5 18 wish that made experience!

its IX
X is for 10
I is 1

I or any Roman numeral can only be use 3 times in a consecutive order.

It is a general rule that you may place I to a bigger Roman numeral.
