MMMCMXLI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + CM (900) + XL (40) + I (1) = 3941.
CM and XL are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMDCCCCXLI
Why isn't 3941 written as MMMDCCCCXLI?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 900 is CM (1000 − 100), not DCCCC, so 3941 is MMMCMXLI.
Wrong: MMMCMXXXXI
Why isn't 3941 written as MMMCMXXXXI?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 3941 is MMMCMXLI.
Wrong: MMMDCCCCXXXXI
Why isn't 3941 written as MMMDCCCCXXXXI?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so DCCCC and XXXX are not used: 900 = CM, 40 = XL. Together they make MMMCMXLI.
