| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|

MMMCMIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + CM (900) + IV (4) = 3904.
CM and IV are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMDCCCCIV
Why isn't 3904 written as MMMDCCCCIV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 900 is CM (1000 − 100), not DCCCC, so 3904 is MMMCMIV.
Wrong: MMMCMIIII
Why isn't 3904 written as MMMCMIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 3904 is MMMCMIV.
Wrong: MMMDCCCCIIII
Why isn't 3904 written as MMMDCCCCIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so DCCCC and IIII are not used: 900 = CM, 4 = IV. Together they make MMMCMIV.
