Total2901MMCMI

MMCMI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + CM (900) + I (1) = 2901.

CM is the only subtraction: the C before the M takes away 100, so CM = 900.

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMDCCCCI

Why isn't 2901 written as MMDCCCCI?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 900 is CM (1000 − 100), not DCCCC, so 2901 is MMCMI.
