How CXCV is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Hundreds | 100 | C |
| Tens | 90 | X (subtracted)C |
| Units | 5 | V |
| Total | 195 | CXCV |
CXCV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: C (100) + XC (90) + V (5) = 195.
XC is the only subtraction: the X before the C takes away 10, so XC = 90.
Common mistakes
Wrong: CVC
Why isn't 195 written as CVC?
V is never subtracted; only I, X and C can come before a larger symbol. Write each place separately: C (100) + XC (90) + V (5) = CXCV.
Wrong: CLXXXXV
Why isn't 195 written as CLXXXXV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 195 is CXCV.
