MMDCCXLI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + DCC (700) + XL (40) + I (1) = 2741.

XL is the only subtraction: the X before the L takes away 10, so XL = 40.

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMDCCXXXXI

Why isn't 2741 written as MMDCCXXXXI?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 2741 is MMDCCXLI.
