IC
C is 100 and I is 1
-> I before C = 99
The above answer provided by a WikiAnswers contributor is 100% correct. In fact the Latin (the language spoken by the Romans) word for 99 is undecentum which literally means one from a hundred. For example: Multiplying 11 by 9 in Roman numerals: XI times IX = -I(X+I)+X(X+I) Multiplying out the brackets = -X-I+C+X When simplified = -I+C = IC
99+1056 = 1155 or MCLV in Roman numerals Today we write out 99 in Roman numerals as XCIX but the Romans themselves would have probably wrote it out simply as IC (-1+100 = 99)
The number 49 in Roman numerals is XLIX and the number 99 in Roman numerals is XCIX
Today's conventional way of writing 99 into Roman numerals is XCIX. However the Romans themselves would have probably calculated 99 on a abacus counting device as LXXXXVIIII and then wrote it out as IC (-1+100 =99)
In todays modern notation of Roman numerals they represent 99

You write 1533 in roman numerals like this: MDXXXIII
99 = IC (-1+100) But today's conversion of 99 into Roman numerals is XCIX However, the Romans themselves would have probably wrote out the number 99 as LXXXXVIIII which then can be simplified to IC
Under today's rules it is written as XCIX But under the Roman rules 99 was once written as LXXXXVIIII which can be methodically modified to IC (100-1)
