How MMCML is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 2000 | MM |
| Hundreds | 900 | C (subtracted)M |
| Tens | 50 | L |
| Total | 2950 | MMCML |
MMCML is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + CM (900) + L (50) = 2950.
CM is the only subtraction: the C before the M takes away 100, so CM = 900.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMLM
Why isn't 2950 written as MMLM?
L is never subtracted; only I, X and C can come before a larger symbol. Write each place separately: MM (2000) + CM (900) + L (50) = MMCML.
Wrong: MMDCCCCL
Why isn't 2950 written as MMDCCCCL?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 900 is CM (1000 − 100), not DCCCC, so 2950 is MMCML.
