Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMCCCCXCVI
Why isn't 3496 written as MMMCCCCXCVI?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 3496 is MMMCDXCVI.
Wrong: MMMCDLXXXXVI
Why isn't 3496 written as MMMCDLXXXXVI?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 3496 is MMMCDXCVI.
Wrong: MMMCCCCLXXXXVI
Why isn't 3496 written as MMMCCCCLXXXXVI?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so CCCC and LXXXX are not used: 400 = CD, 90 = XC. Together they make MMMCDXCVI.
