How DCCXCI is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Hundreds | 700 | DCC |
| Tens | 90 | X (subtracted)C |
| Units | 1 | I |
| Total | 791 | DCCXCI |
DCCXCI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: DCC (700) + XC (90) + I (1) = 791.
XC is the only subtraction: the X before the C takes away 10, so XC = 90.
Common mistakes
Wrong: DCCLXXXXI
Why isn't 791 written as DCCLXXXXI?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 791 is DCCXCI.
