Total3046MMMXLVI

MMMXLVI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + XL (40) + VI (6) = 3046.

XL is the only subtraction: the X before the L takes away 10, so XL = 40.

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMMXXXXVI

Why isn't 3046 written as MMMXXXXVI?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 3046 is MMMXLVI.
