How MMCMLXXXIV is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 2000 | MM |
| Hundreds | 900 | C (subtracted)M |
| Tens | 80 | LXXX |
| Units | 4 | I (subtracted)V |

MMCMLXXXIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MM (2000) + CM (900) + LXXX (80) + IV (4) = 2984.
CM and IV are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMDCCCCLXXXIV
Why isn't 2984 written as MMDCCCCLXXXIV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 900 is CM (1000 − 100), not DCCCC, so 2984 is MMCMLXXXIV.
Wrong: MMCMLXXXIIII
Why isn't 2984 written as MMCMLXXXIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 2984 is MMCMLXXXIV.
Wrong: MMDCCCCLXXXIIII
Why isn't 2984 written as MMDCCCCLXXXIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so DCCCC and IIII are not used: 900 = CM, 4 = IV. Together they make MMCMLXXXIV.
