How XCIV is formed
| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Tens | 90 | X (subtracted)C |
| Units | 4 | I (subtracted)V |
| Total | 94 | XCIV |
XCIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: XC (90) + IV (4) = 94.
XC and IV are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: LXXXXIV
Why isn't 94 written as LXXXXIV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 90 is XC (100 − 10), not LXXXX, so 94 is XCIV.
Wrong: XCIIII
Why isn't 94 written as XCIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 94 is XCIV.
Wrong: LXXXXIIII
Why isn't 94 written as LXXXXIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so LXXXX and IIII are not used: 90 = XC, 4 = IV. Together they make XCIV.
