Total695DCXCV

DCXCV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: DC (600) + XC (90) + V (5) = 695.

XC is the only subtraction: the X before the C takes away 10, so XC = 90.

Common mistakes

Wrong: DCVC

Why isn't 695 written as DCVC?

V is never subtracted; only I, X and C can come before a larger symbol. Write each place separately: DC (600) + XC (90) + V (5) = DCXCV.

Wrong: DCLXXXXV

Why isn't 695 written as DCLXXXXV?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 695 is DCXCV.
