MMDXCIII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + D (500) + XC (90) + III (3) = 2593.

XC is the only subtraction: the X before the C takes away 10, so XC = 90.

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMDLXXXXIII

Why isn't 2593 written as MMDLXXXXIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 2593 is MMDXCIII.
