How MMMDCXLVIII is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 3000 | MMM |
| Hundreds | 600 | DC |
| Tens | 40 | X (subtracted)L |
| Units | 8 | VIII |
| Total | 3648 | MMMDCXLVIII |
MMMDCXLVIII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + DC (600) + XL (40) + VIII (8) = 3648.
XL is the only subtraction: the X before the L takes away 10, so XL = 40.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMDCXXXXVIII
Why isn't 3648 written as MMMDCXXXXVIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 3648 is MMMDCXLVIII.
Wrong: MMMDCXLIIX
Why isn't 3648 written as MMMDCXLIIX?
Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so IIX doesn't work. 8 is VIII (5 + 3), so 3648 is MMMDCXLVIII.
