MXLIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: M (1000) + XL (40) + IV (4) = 1044.
XL and IV are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MXXXXIV
Why isn't 1044 written as MXXXXIV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 1044 is MXLIV.
Wrong: MXLIIII
Why isn't 1044 written as MXLIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 1044 is MXLIV.
Wrong: MXXXXIIII
Why isn't 1044 written as MXXXXIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so XXXX and IIII are not used: 40 = XL, 4 = IV. Together they make MXLIV.
