DXIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: D (500) + X (10) + IV (4) = 514.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: DXIIII

Why isn't 514 written as DXIIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 514 is DXIV.
