MMMDXL is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + D (500) + XL (40) = 3540.

XL is the only subtraction: the X before the L takes away 10, so XL = 40.

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMMDXXXX

Why isn't 3540 written as MMMDXXXX?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 3540 is MMMDXL.
