How MMMCXLIX is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 3000 | MMM |
| Hundreds | 100 | C |
| Tens | 40 | X (subtracted)L |

MMMCXLIX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + C (100) + XL (40) + IX (9) = 3149.
XL and IX are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMCIL
Why isn't 3149 written as MMMCIL?
I can only be subtracted from V and X, so IL (50 − 1) is not a valid pair. Write each place separately: MMM (3000) + C (100) + XL (40) + IX (9) = MMMCXLIX.
Wrong: MMMCXXXXIX
Why isn't 3149 written as MMMCXXXXIX?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 3149 is MMMCXLIX.
Wrong: MMMCXLVIIII
Why isn't 3149 written as MMMCXLVIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 9 is IX (10 − 1), not VIIII, so 3149 is MMMCXLIX.
