XXXVIIII (39) or IXXXX (40-1) or IXL (50-11) and they are not XXXIX Alternative conventionally accepted answerAccording to the website Algebra.com the accepted way of writing Roman numerals is to start with the highest value numeral on the left and read from left to right. Using this rule it is clear that XXXIX (30 + 9) and XXXVIIII (30 + 5 + 4) are both perfectly correct and acceptable. The supposed alternative numeral IXl starts with a numeral I (1) which is clearly lower in value than either X (10) or L (50). Another rule which it breaks is that "I may be placed before V and X but should not be placed before a higher value numeral" such as L.
