XCIII is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: XC (90) + III (3) = 93.

XC is the only subtraction: the X before the C takes away 10, so XC = 90.

Common mistakes

Wrong: LXXXXIII

Why isn't 93 written as LXXXXIII?

A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 93 is XCIII.
