| Place | Value | Symbols |
|---|---|---|
| Hundreds | 900 | C (subtracted)M |

CMLXIV is written one place at a time, from the largest to the smallest: CM (900) + LX (60) + IV (4) = 964.
CM and IV are subtractive pairs: in each one the smaller symbol comes first and is taken away.
Common mistakes
Wrong: DCCCCLXIV
Why isn't 964 written as DCCCCLXIV?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 900 is CM (1000 − 100), not DCCCC, so 964 is CMLXIV.
Wrong: CMLXIIII
Why isn't 964 written as CMLXIIII?
A symbol can't be repeated four times in a row. 4 is IV (5 − 1), not IIII, so 964 is CMLXIV.
Wrong: DCCCCLXIIII
Why isn't 964 written as DCCCCLXIIII?
No symbol can be repeated four times in a row, so DCCCC and IIII are not used: 900 = CM, 4 = IV. Together they make CMLXIV.
