MMCDXXIII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + CD (400) + XX (20) + III (3) = 2423.

CD is the only subtraction: the C before the D takes away 100, so CD = 400.

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMCCCCXXIII

Why isn't 2423 written as MMCCCCXXIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 2423 is MMCDXXIII.
