Total418CDXVIII

CDXVIII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: CD (400) + X (10) + VIII (8) = 418.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: CCCCXVIII

Why isn't 418 written as CCCCXVIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 418 is CDXVIII.

Wrong: CDXIIX

Why isn't 418 written as CDXIIX?

Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so IIX doesn't work. 8 is VIII (5 + 3), so 418 is CDXVIII.
