Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMCCCCIX
Why isn't 3409 written as MMMCCCCIX?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 3409 is MMMCDIX.
Wrong: MMMCDVIIII
Why isn't 3409 written as MMMCDVIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 9 is IX (10 − 1), not VIIII, so 3409 is MMMCDIX.
Wrong: MMMCCCCVIIII
Why isn't 3409 written as MMMCCCCVIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so CCCC and VIIII are not used: 400 = CD, 9 = IX. Together they make MMMCDIX.
