MMMDCCCXLI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + DCCC (800) + XL (40) + I (1) = 3841.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMMDCCCXXXXI

Why isn't 3841 written as MMMDCCCXXXXI?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 3841 is MMMDCCCXLI.

Wrong: MMMCCMXLI

Why isn't 3841 written as MMMCCMXLI?

Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so CCM doesn't work. 800 is DCCC (500 + 300), so 3841 is MMMDCCCXLI.
