Total292CCXCII

CCXCII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: CC (200) + XC (90) + II (2) = 292.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: CCLXXXXII

Why isn't 292 written as CCLXXXXII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 292 is CCXCII.
