Roman Numerals: 44

How to Convert 44 into Roman Numerals

Roman numerals are made up of seven letters: I (1), V (5), X (10), L (50), C (100), D (500), and M (1000). To write a number like 44, we combine these letters starting from the largest value and working down to the smallest.

Let’s break 44 into parts and build the Roman numeral step by step:

40 fits into what’s left of the number one time.
That means we add XL to our Roman numeral because one × forty equals 40.

4 fits into what’s left of the number one time.
That means we add IV to our Roman numeral because one × four equals 4.

Final Answer

After combining all the parts, the Roman numeral for 44 is:

XLIV


Tip: If a smaller numeral appears before a larger one (like IV), it means you subtract. If a smaller one comes after a larger one (like VI), it means you add. You’ll see both styles when needed.
