How MMCDXCV is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 2000 | MM |
| Hundreds | 400 | C (subtracted)D |
| Tens | 90 | X (subtracted)C |
| Units | 5 | V |
| Total | 2495 | MMCDXCV |
MMCDXCV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + CD (400) + XC (90) + V (5) = 2495.
CD and XC are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMVD
Why isn't 2495 written as MMVD?
V is never subtracted; only I, X and C can come before a larger symbol. Write each place separately: MM (2000) + CD (400) + XC (90) + V (5) = MMCDXCV.
Wrong: MMCDVC
Why isn't 2495 written as MMCDVC?
V is never subtracted; only I, X and C can come before a larger symbol. Write each place separately: MM (2000) + CD (400) + XC (90) + V (5) = MMCDXCV.
Wrong: MMCCCCXCV
Why isn't 2495 written as MMCCCCXCV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 2495 is MMCDXCV.
