How MDCCCXIV is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 1000 | M |
| Hundreds | 800 | DCCC |
| Tens | 10 | X |
| Units | 4 | I (subtracted)V |
| Total | 1814 | MDCCCXIV |
MDCCCXIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: M (1000) + DCCC (800) + X (10) + IV (4) = 1814.
IV is the only subtraction: the I before the V takes away 1, so IV = 4.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MDCCCXIIII
Why isn't 1814 written as MDCCCXIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 1814 is MDCCCXIV.
Wrong: MCCMXIV
Why isn't 1814 written as MCCMXIV?
Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so CCM doesn't work. 800 is DCCC (500 + 300), so 1814 is MDCCCXIV.
