X = 10

V = 5

I = 1

If the smaller number comes after the larger one then you add them; if it comes before then you subtract the smaller from the larger, so:

XVI = 16

but XIV would be 14. XI would be 11 but IX would be 9.

This year is MMXI in Roman Numerals because M = 1000 (1000 + 1000 + 10 + 1)

Hope that helps.
