How MMMCMXCV is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Thousands | 3000 | MMM |
| Hundreds | 900 | C (subtracted)M |
| Tens | 90 | X (subtracted)C |
| Units | 5 | V |

MMMCMXCV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: MMM (3000) + CM (900) + XC (90) + V (5) = 3995.
CM and XC are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: MMMVM
Why isn't 3995 written as MMMVM?
V is never subtracted; only I, X and C can come before a larger symbol. Write each place separately: MMM (3000) + CM (900) + XC (90) + V (5) = MMMCMXCV.
Wrong: MMMCMVC
Why isn't 3995 written as MMMCMVC?
V is never subtracted; only I, X and C can come before a larger symbol. Write each place separately: MMM (3000) + CM (900) + XC (90) + V (5) = MMMCMXCV.
Wrong: MMMDCCCCXCV
Why isn't 3995 written as MMMDCCCCXCV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 900 is CM (1000 − 100), not DCCCC, so 3995 is MMMCMXCV.
