MMMCXLI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + C (100) + XL (40) + I (1) = 3141.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMMCXXXXI

Why isn't 3141 written as MMMCXXXXI?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 3141 is MMMCXLI.
