MMM = 3,000
CM = 1,000 - 100 = 900
XC = 100 - 10 = 90
IX = 10 - 1 = 9
total: 3,999
MMMCMXCIX in Roman numerals represents the number 3999.
MMMCMXCIX
That would be one interpretation of it. Most people today would use MMMCMXCIX.
MMMMMMMMMCMXCIX However this breaks with the accepted convention that states M may not repeat more than 3 times. As such, 3999 is the largest number that can be represented by Roman numerals (MMMCMXCIX).
In roman numerals, numbers greater than 3999 use parenthesis around, or a horizontal line above, the numbers that are multiplied by 1000. Writing 3999 IS written as MMMCMXCIX, but the number 4010 would be written as (IV)X.
The largest number you can write using Roman numerals without an overline at any symbol is 3999 (MMMCMXCIX), and the largest possible number is 3999999 (MMMCMXCIXCMXCIX, with an overline over the first nine letters.

4,000,000 Ms. The accepted convention states M cannot repeat more than 3 times in succession. Thus 4 billion cannot be represented in Roman numerals. 3999 is the maximum (MMMCMXCIX).
8,765,874 Ms followed by DCLXXVIII. Modern convention does not permit more than 3 Ms in succession, thus MMMCMXCIX (3999) is the largest Roman numeral.
In roman numerals, numbers greater than 3999 use parenthesis around, or a horizontal line above, the numbers that are multiplied by 1000. Writing 3999 IS written as MMMCMXCIX, but the number 4010 would be written as (IV)X.

9074 = MMMMMMMMMLXXIV The modern convention states that M may not be repeated more than 3 times in succession. MMMCMXCIX (3999) is therefore the maximum Roman value.
In roman numerals, numbers greater than 3999 use parentheses around, or a horizontal line above, the numbers that are to be multiplied by 1000. Writing 3999 can be written as MMMCMXCIX, but the number 4010 would be written as (IV)X. Therefore, the number 100,800 is written in roman numerals as (C)DCCC.
4,121 Ms followed by CMLXXXVIII. However, standard convention dictates M may not be repeated more than 3 times in succession. Therefore MMMCMXCIX (3999) is the largest Roman numeral.
There is no Roman numeral for digit zero, so the leading zero cannot be represented in Roman numerals. Excluding the leading zero, 1,081,989 would be 1,081 Ms followed by CMLXXXIX. However that breaks the standard convention that states M may not repeat more than thrice. MMMCMXCIX (3999) is the largest Roman numeral.
24 Ms. The accepted convention does not permit M to repeat more than 3 times, so 3999 is the largest value, represented by MMMCMXCIX.
