How DCCCLXXXIV is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Hundreds | 800 | DCCC |
| Tens | 80 | LXXX |
| Units | 4 | I (subtracted)V |
| Total | 884 | DCCCLXXXIV |
DCCCLXXXIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: DCCC (800) + LXXX (80) + IV (4) = 884.
IV is the only subtraction: the I before the V takes away 1, so IV = 4.
Common mistakes
Wrong: DCCCLXXXIIII
Why isn't 884 written as DCCCLXXXIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 884 is DCCCLXXXIV.
Wrong: CCMLXXXIV
Why isn't 884 written as CCMLXXXIV?
Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so CCM doesn't work. 800 is DCCC (500 + 300), so 884 is DCCCLXXXIV.
Wrong: DCCCXXCIV
Why isn't 884 written as DCCCXXCIV?
Only one smaller symbol can stand before a larger one, so XXC doesn't work. 80 is LXXX (50 + 30), so 884 is DCCCLXXXIV.
