DCCXXXIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: DCC (700) + XXX (30) + IV (4) = 734.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: DCCXXXIIII

Why isn't 734 written as DCCXXXIIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 734 is DCCXXXIV.
