DLIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: D (500) + L (50) + IV (4) = 554.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: DLIIII

Why isn't 554 written as DLIIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 554 is DLIV.
