How MMCXCVII is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 2000 | MM |
| Hundreds | 100 | C |
| Tens | 90 | X (subtracted)C |
| Units | 7 | VII |
| Total | 2197 | MMCXCVII |
MMCXCVII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + C (100) + XC (90) + VII (7) = 2197.
XC is the only subtraction: the X before the C takes away 10, so XC = 90.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMCLXXXXVII
Why isn't 2197 written as MMCLXXXXVII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 2197 is MMCXCVII.
