MMMCCCIX
3,309 in Roman numerals is MMMCCCIX.

Roman numerals use seven basic symbols: I = 1, V = 5, X = 10, L = 50, C = 100, D = 500, M = 1,000. The general rule is: reading left to right, values in descending order add up. When a smaller symbol comes before a larger one, it subtracts (e.g., IV = 4), which happens in this case.

Step-by-step conversion of 3,309:

1. MMM = 1,000 + 1,000 + 1,000 = 3,000 → M repeated 3 times.

2. CCC = 100 + 100 + 100 = 300 → C repeated 3 times.

3. IX = 10 - 1 = 9 → subtraction rule used.

So, 3,000 + 300 + 9 = 3,309, or MMMCCCIX in Roman numeral form.
