How CMXXXVI is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Hundreds | 900 | C (subtracted)M |
| Tens | 30 | XXX |
| Units | 6 | VI |
| Total | 936 | CMXXXVI |
CMXXXVI is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: CM (900) + XXX (30) + VI (6) = 936.
CM is the only subtraction: the C before the M takes away 100, so CM = 900.
Common mistakes
Wrong: DCCCCXXXVI
Why isn't 936 written as DCCCCXXXVI?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 900 is CM (1000 − 100), not DCCCC, so 936 is CMXXXVI.
