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.
