Total384CCCLXXXIV

CCCLXXXIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: CCC (300) + LXXX (80) + IV (4) = 384.

IV is the only subtraction: the I before the V takes away 1, so IV = 4.

Common mistakes

Wrong: CCCLXXXIIII

Why isn't 384 written as CCCLXXXIIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 384 is CCCLXXXIV.

Wrong: CCCXXCIV

Why isn't 384 written as CCCXXCIV?

Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so XXC doesn't work. 80 is LXXX (50 + 30), so 384 is CCCLXXXIV.
