How MCXLIV is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 1000 | M |
| Hundreds | 100 | C |
| Tens | 40 | X (subtracted)L |
| Units | 4 | I (subtracted)V |
| Total | 1144 | MCXLIV |
MCXLIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: M (1000) + C (100) + XL (40) + IV (4) = 1144.
XL and IV are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MCXXXXIV
Why isn't 1144 written as MCXXXXIV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 1144 is MCXLIV.
Wrong: MCXLIIII
Why isn't 1144 written as MCXLIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 1144 is MCXLIV.
Wrong: MCXXXXIIII
Why isn't 1144 written as MCXXXXIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so XXXX and IIII are not used: 40 = XL, 4 = IV. Together they make MCXLIV.
