MMCDXXXI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + CD (400) + XXX (30) + I (1) = 2431.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMCCCCXXXI

Why isn't 2431 written as MMCCCCXXXI?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 2431 is MMCDXXXI.
