How MMMCMLX is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 3000 | MMM |
| Hundreds | 900 | C (subtracted)M |
| Tens | 60 | LX |
| Total | 3960 | MMMCMLX |
MMMCMLX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + CM (900) + LX (60) = 3960.
CM is the only subtraction: the C before the M takes away 100, so CM = 900.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMDCCCCLX
Why isn't 3960 written as MMMDCCCCLX?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 900 is CM (1000 − 100), not DCCCC, so 3960 is MMMCMLX.
