Total3408MMMCDVIII

MMMCDVIII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + CD (400) + VIII (8) = 3408.

CD is the only subtraction: the C before the D takes away 100, so CD = 400.

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMMCCCCVIII

Why isn't 3408 written as MMMCCCCVIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 3408 is MMMCDVIII.

Wrong: MMMCDIIX

Why isn't 3408 written as MMMCDIIX?

Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so IIX doesn't work. 8 is VIII (5 + 3), so 3408 is MMMCDVIII.
