Total1204MCCIV

MCCIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: M (1000) + CC (200) + IV (4) = 1204.

IV is the only subtraction: the I before the V takes away 1, so IV = 4.

Common mistakes

Wrong: MCCIIII

Why isn't 1204 written as MCCIIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 1204 is MCCIV.
