CMXX is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: CM (900) + XX (20) = 920.

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

Common mistakes

Wrong: DCCCCXX

Why isn't 920 written as DCCCCXX?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 900 is CM (1000 − 100), not DCCCC, so 920 is CMXX.
