MMCCXLVII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + CC (200) + XL (40) + VII (7) = 2247.

XL is the only subtraction: the X before the L takes away 10, so XL = 40.

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMCCXXXXVII

Why isn't 2247 written as MMCCXXXXVII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 2247 is MMCCXLVII.
