How MMMXL is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 3000 | MMM |
| Tens | 40 | X (subtracted)L |
| Total | 3040 | MMMXL |
MMMXL is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + XL (40) = 3040.
XL is the only subtraction: the X before the L takes away 10, so XL = 40.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMXXXX
Why isn't 3040 written as MMMXXXX?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 3040 is MMMXL.
