|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 1000 | M |

MCDXLIII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: M (1000) + CD (400) + XL (40) + III (3) = 1443.
CD and XL are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MCCCCXLIII
Why isn't 1443 written as MCCCCXLIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 1443 is MCDXLIII.
Wrong: MCDXXXXIII
Why isn't 1443 written as MCDXXXXIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 1443 is MCDXLIII.
Wrong: MCCCCXXXXIII
Why isn't 1443 written as MCCCCXXXXIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so CCCC and XXXX are not used: 400 = CD, 40 = XL. Together they make MCDXLIII.
