How DCXCI is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Hundreds | 600 | DC |
| Tens | 90 | X (subtracted)C |
| Units | 1 | I |
| Total | 691 | DCXCI |
DCXCI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: DC (600) + XC (90) + I (1) = 691.
XC is the only subtraction: the X before the C takes away 10, so XC = 90.
Common mistakes
Wrong: DCLXXXXI
Why isn't 691 written as DCLXXXXI?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 691 is DCXCI.
