How MCDL is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 1000 | M |
| Hundreds | 400 | C (subtracted)D |
| Tens | 50 | L |
| Total | 1450 | MCDL |
MCDL is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: M (1000) + CD (400) + L (50) = 1450.
CD is the only subtraction: the C before the D takes away 100, so CD = 400.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MLD
Why isn't 1450 written as MLD?
L is never subtracted; only I, X and C can come before a larger symbol. Write each place separately: M (1000) + CD (400) + L (50) = MCDL.
Wrong: MCCCCL
Why isn't 1450 written as MCCCCL?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 1450 is MCDL.
