How MCDXLV is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 1000 | M |
| Hundreds | 400 | C (subtracted)D |
| Tens | 40 | X (subtracted)L |
| Units | 5 | V |
| Total | 1445 | MCDXLV |
MCDXLV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: M (1000) + CD (400) + XL (40) + V (5) = 1445.
CD and XL are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MCDVL
Why isn't 1445 written as MCDVL?
V is never subtracted; only I, X and C can come before a larger symbol. Write each place separately: M (1000) + CD (400) + XL (40) + V (5) = MCDXLV.
Wrong: MCCCCXLV
Why isn't 1445 written as MCCCCXLV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 1445 is MCDXLV.
Wrong: MCDXXXXV
Why isn't 1445 written as MCDXXXXV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 1445 is MCDXLV.
