MMMDCCXLI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + DCC (700) + XL (40) + I (1) = 3741.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMMDCCXXXXI

Why isn't 3741 written as MMMDCCXXXXI?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 3741 is MMMDCCXLI.
