MMMCXLVI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + C (100) + XL (40) + VI (6) = 3146.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMMCXXXXVI

Why isn't 3146 written as MMMCXXXXVI?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 3146 is MMMCXLVI.
