It looks like the letter N which is the symbol for nought and nothing can't be subtracted from anything because it remains the same.

The Roman numeral XXXIX represents the number 39. X (10) is subtracted from L (50) in order to express the number 40, and then I (1) is subtracted from 40 to represent 39.
In the Roman numeric system, symbols are given value. When a smaller value symbol proceeds a higher value symbol, then the smaller value symbol is subtracted from the high value symbol. In this case XC is equal to 90 (X =10, C = 100. So XC equals 100 - 10 or 90). The symbols that hold numeric are I = 1, V = 5, X = 10, L = 50, C = 100, D = 500, M = 1,000.

1 = I 5 = V 10 = X 50 = L 100 = C 500 = D 1,000 = M For example, 1776 is MDCCLXXVI However, you are not allowed to have more than four of the same symbol in a row (except for on some clocks with IIII). But if a smaller symbol is in front of a larger symbol, than it is subtracted. IV = 4 IX = 9 (I can only be subtracted from V and X) XL = 40 XC = 90 (X can only be subtracted from L and C) CD = 400 CM = 900 (C can only be subtracted from D and M) So 1999 is M CM XC IX. Some people write MIM instead of MCMXCIX. This is incorrect because I can't be subtracted from M.

The fives (V=5, L=50, D=500) are never subtracted in Roman numerals, because, for example, VX for 5 (10-5=5) is the same value as just plain V.
I hope I understand your question correctly. In Roman numerals: Our letter "X" is the symbol used for the Roman number 10. Our letter "I" is the symbol used for the Roman number 1. Our letter "V" is the symbol used for the Roman number 5. To write a number in Roman numerals, you use a combination of these letters. For example: For Roman numeral 9, it would be "IX", for Roman numeral 11, it would be "XI". For Roman numeral 4, it would be "IV", and for Roman numeral 6, it would be "VI". For Roman numeral 3, it would be "III". In other words, the letter(s) before the last letter are subtracted from the last letter (unless the first value is greater than the next value), and the letters after the first letters are added to the first letter (unless the first value is NOT greater than the next value).
CCXCIII The rule is that any symbol that is smaller value than the next must be subtracted from the next, not added to the one before. So two C s make 200, XC is 90, III is 3

94. XC is 10 subtracted from 100, aka 90. and IV is one subtracted from 5 aka 4. 90+4=94
