Total455CDLV

CDLV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: CD (400) + L (50) + V (5) = 455.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: CCCCLV

Why isn't 455 written as CCCCLV?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 400 is CD (500 − 100), not CCCC, so 455 is CDLV.
