How MMMCDXX is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 3000 | MMM |
| Hundreds | 400 | C (subtracted)D |
| Tens | 20 | XX |
| Total | 3420 | MMMCDXX |
MMMCDXX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + CD (400) + XX (20) = 3420.
CD is the only subtraction: the C before the D takes away 100, so CD = 400.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMCCCCXX
Why isn't 3420 written as MMMCCCCXX?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 3420 is MMMCDXX.
