CMXII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: CM (900) + X (10) + II (2) = 912.

CM is the only subtraction: the C before the M takes away 100, so CM = 900.

Common mistakes

Wrong: DCCCCXII

Why isn't 912 written as DCCCCXII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 900 is CM (1000 − 100), not DCCCC, so 912 is CMXII.
