How MMMCDXCIX is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 3000 | MMM |
| Hundreds | 400 | C (subtracted)D |
| Tens | 90 | X (subtracted)C |
| Units | 9 | I (subtracted)X |

MMMCDXCIX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + CD (400) + XC (90) + IX (9) = 3499.
CD, XC, and IX are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMID
Why isn't 3499 written as MMMID?
I can only be subtracted from V and X, so ID (500 − 1) is not a valid pair. Write each place separately: MMM (3000) + CD (400) + XC (90) + IX (9) = MMMCDXCIX.
Wrong: MMMCDIC
Why isn't 3499 written as MMMCDIC?
I can only be subtracted from V and X, so IC (100 − 1) is not a valid pair. Write each place separately: MMM (3000) + CD (400) + XC (90) + IX (9) = MMMCDXCIX.
Wrong: MMMCCCCXCIX
Why isn't 3499 written as MMMCCCCXCIX?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 3499 is MMMCDXCIX.
