MMMCDLIX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + CD (400) + L (50) + IX (9) = 3459.
CD and IX are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMCCCCLIX
Why isn't 3459 written as MMMCCCCLIX?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 3459 is MMMCDLIX.
Wrong: MMMCDLVIIII
Why isn't 3459 written as MMMCDLVIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 9 is IX (10 − 1), not VIIII, so 3459 is MMMCDLIX.
Wrong: MMMCCCCLVIIII
Why isn't 3459 written as MMMCCCCLVIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so CCCC and VIIII are not used: 400 = CD, 9 = IX. Together they make MMMCDLIX.
