How MCXCV is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 1000 | M |
| Hundreds | 100 | C |
| Tens | 90 | X (subtracted)C |
| Units | 5 | V |
| Total | 1195 | MCXCV |
MCXCV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: M (1000) + C (100) + XC (90) + V (5) = 1195.
XC is the only subtraction: the X before the C takes away 10, so XC = 90.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MCVC
Why isn't 1195 written as MCVC?
V is never subtracted; only I, X and C can come before a larger symbol. Write each place separately: M (1000) + C (100) + XC (90) + V (5) = MCXCV.
Wrong: MCLXXXXV
Why isn't 1195 written as MCLXXXXV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 1195 is MCXCV.
