CDXLI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: CD (400) + XL (40) + I (1) = 441.
CD and XL are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: CCCCXLI
Why isn't 441 written as CCCCXLI?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 441 is CDXLI.
Wrong: CDXXXXI
Why isn't 441 written as CDXXXXI?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 40 is XL (50 − 10), not XXXX, so 441 is CDXLI.
Wrong: CCCCXXXXI
Why isn't 441 written as CCCCXXXXI?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so CCCC and XXXX are not used: 400 = CD, 40 = XL. Together they make CDXLI.
