How MMCMIV is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 2000 | MM |
| Hundreds | 900 | C (subtracted)M |
| Units | 4 | I (subtracted)V |
| Total | 2904 | MMCMIV |
MMCMIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + CM (900) + IV (4) = 2904.
CM and IV are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMDCCCCIV
Why isn't 2904 written as MMDCCCCIV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 900 is CM (1000 − 100), not DCCCC, so 2904 is MMCMIV.
Wrong: MMCMIIII
Why isn't 2904 written as MMCMIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 2904 is MMCMIV.
Wrong: MMDCCCCIIII
Why isn't 2904 written as MMDCCCCIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so DCCCC and IIII are not used: 900 = CM, 4 = IV. Together they make MMCMIV.
