How MMCDIV is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 2000 | MM |
| Hundreds | 400 | C (subtracted)D |
| Units | 4 | I (subtracted)V |
| Total | 2404 | MMCDIV |
MMCDIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + CD (400) + IV (4) = 2404.
CD and IV are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMCCCCIV
Why isn't 2404 written as MMCCCCIV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 2404 is MMCDIV.
Wrong: MMCDIIII
Why isn't 2404 written as MMCDIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 2404 is MMCDIV.
Wrong: MMCCCCIIII
Why isn't 2404 written as MMCCCCIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so CCCC and IIII are not used: 400 = CD, 4 = IV. Together they make MMCDIV.
