MMMDXLVIII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + D (500) + XL (40) + VIII (8) = 3548.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMMDXXXXVIII

Why isn't 3548 written as MMMDXXXXVIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 3548 is MMMDXLVIII.

Wrong: MMMDXLIIX

Why isn't 3548 written as MMMDXLIIX?

Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so IIX doesn't work. 8 is VIII (5 + 3), so 3548 is MMMDXLVIII.
