How CMXVI is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Hundreds | 900 | C (subtracted)M |
| Tens | 10 | X |
| Units | 6 | VI |
| Total | 916 | CMXVI |
CMXVI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: CM (900) + X (10) + VI (6) = 916.
CM is the only subtraction: the C before the M takes away 100, so CM = 900.
Common mistakes
Wrong: DCCCCXVI
Why isn't 916 written as DCCCCXVI?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 900 is CM (1000 − 100), not DCCCC, so 916 is CMXVI.
