Notwithstanding todays configuration of Roman numerals inasmuch that there is evidence to suggest that the ancient Romans would have written the equivalent of one to a million as follows:-
Units: I, II, III, IIII, V, VI, VII, VIII and VIIII
Tens: X, XX, XXX, XXXX, L, LX, LXX, LXXX and LXXXX
Hundreds: C, CC, CCC, CCCC, D, DC, DCC, DCCC and DCCCC
Thousands: (I), (II), (III), (IIII), (V), (VI), (VII), (VIII) and (VIIII)
Tens of thousands: (X), (XX), (XXX), (XXXX), (L), (LX), (LXX), (LXXX) and (LXXXX)
Hundreds of thousands: (C), (CC), (CCC), (CCCC), (D), (DC), (DCC), (DCCC) and (DCCCC)
Million: (M)
To select any numerals simply write them out in descending order and then abridge them whenever possible as in the following examples:-
900,000 = (DCCCC) = (CM)
90,000 = (LXXXX) = (XC)
9,000 = (VIIII) = (IX)
900 = DCCCC = C(I) or as CM
90 = LXXXX = XC
9 = VIIII = IX
999,999 = (DCCCCLXXXXVIIII)DCCCCLXXXXVIIII = I(M)
Check:-
(CM)+(XC) = (XM) = 990,000
(XM)+(IX) = (IM) = 999,000
(IM)+CM = C(M) = 999,900
C(M)+XC = X(M) = 999,990
X(M)+IX = I(M) = 999,999
Note that numerals within brackets indicate multiplication by a thousand and that the practice of placing a bar above a numeral to indicate multiplication by a thousand was introduced during the Middle Ages along with other rules and regulations governing todays Roman numeral system.
