How MMCDLXXVII is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 2000 | MM |
| Hundreds | 400 | C (subtracted)D |
| Tens | 70 | LXX |
| Units | 7 | VII |
| Total | 2477 | MMCDLXXVII |
MMCDLXXVII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + CD (400) + LXX (70) + VII (7) = 2477.
CD is the only subtraction: the C before the D takes away 100, so CD = 400.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMCCCCLXXVII
Why isn't 2477 written as MMCCCCLXXVII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 2477 is MMCDLXXVII.
