Total1043MXLIII

MXLIII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: M (1000) + XL (40) + III (3) = 1043.

XL is the only subtraction: the X before the L takes away 10, so XL = 40.

Common mistakes

Wrong: MXXXXIII

Why isn't 1043 written as MXXXXIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 1043 is MXLIII.
