How MMMDCXCIX is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 3000 | MMM |
| Hundreds | 600 | DC |
| Tens | 90 | X (subtracted)C |
| Units | 9 | I (subtracted)X |
| Total | 3699 | MMMDCXCIX |
MMMDCXCIX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + DC (600) + XC (90) + IX (9) = 3699.
XC and IX are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMDCIC
Why isn't 3699 written as MMMDCIC?
I can only be subtracted from V and X, so IC (100 − 1) is not a valid pair. Write each place separately: MMM (3000) + DC (600) + XC (90) + IX (9) = MMMDCXCIX.
Wrong: MMMDCLXXXXIX
Why isn't 3699 written as MMMDCLXXXXIX?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 3699 is MMMDCXCIX.
Wrong: MMMDCXCVIIII
Why isn't 3699 written as MMMDCXCVIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 9 is IX (10 − 1), not VIIII, so 3699 is MMMDCXCIX.
