DIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: D (500) + IV (4) = 504.

IV is the only subtraction: the I before the V takes away 1, so IV = 4.

Common mistakes

Wrong: DIIII

Why isn't 504 written as DIIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 504 is DIV.
