How MDCVIII is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 1000 | M |
| Hundreds | 600 | DC |
| Units | 8 | VIII |
| Total | 1608 | MDCVIII |
MDCVIII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: M (1000) + DC (600) + VIII (8) = 1608.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MDCIIX
Why isn't 1608 written as MDCIIX?
Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so IIX doesn't work. 8 is VIII (5 + 3), so 1608 is MDCVIII.
