CDV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: CD (400) + V (5) = 405.

CD is the only subtraction: the C before the D takes away 100, so CD = 400.

Common mistakes

Wrong: CCCCV

Why isn't 405 written as CCCCV?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 405 is CDV.
