Common mistakes

Wrong: MMMDCCXXCVIII

Why isn't 3788 written as MMMDCCXXCVIII?

Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so XXC doesn't work. 80 is LXXX (50 + 30), so 3788 is MMMDCCLXXXVIII.

Wrong: MMMDCCLXXXIIX

Why isn't 3788 written as MMMDCCLXXXIIX?

Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so IIX doesn't work. 8 is VIII (5 + 3), so 3788 is MMMDCCLXXXVIII.
