MMMDCCCLIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + DCCC (800) + L (50) + IV (4) = 3854.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: MMMDCCCLIIII

Why isn't 3854 written as MMMDCCCLIIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 3854 is MMMDCCCLIV.

Wrong: MMMCCMLIV

Why isn't 3854 written as MMMCCMLIV?

Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so CCM doesn't work. 800 is DCCC (500 + 300), so 3854 is MMMDCCCLIV.
