| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 2000 | MM |
| Hundreds | 400 | C (subtracted)D |

MMCDXLV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + CD (400) + XL (40) + V (5) = 2445.
CD and XL are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMCDVL
Why isn't 2445 written as MMCDVL?
V is never subtracted; only I, X and C can come before a larger symbol. Write each place separately: MM (2000) + CD (400) + XL (40) + V (5) = MMCDXLV.
Wrong: MMCCCCXLV
Why isn't 2445 written as MMCCCCXLV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 2445 is MMCDXLV.
Wrong: MMCDXXXXV
Why isn't 2445 written as MMCDXXXXV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 2445 is MMCDXLV.
