  • Subtraction Rule: Only specific combinations use subtraction: IV (4), IX (9), XL (40), XC (90), CD (400), and CM (900).
  • Order: Numerals must be arranged in descending order of size, except where the subtraction rule applies.
  • Limitations: Traditional Roman numerals can only represent numbers from 1 to 3,999. Larger numbers require special notation.
