How DCXCVII is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Hundreds | 600 | DC |
| Tens | 90 | X (subtracted)C |
| Units | 7 | VII |
| Total | 697 | DCXCVII |
DCXCVII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: DC (600) + XC (90) + VII (7) = 697.
XC is the only subtraction: the X before the C takes away 10, so XC = 90.
Common mistakes
Wrong: DCLXXXXVII
Why isn't 697 written as DCLXXXXVII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 697 is DCXCVII.
