    How CLXXI is built

    Roman numerals are written one decimal place at a time, largest first.

    1. Chundreds · 1C is 100.
    2. LXXtens · 7L (50) plus XX (20) makes 70.
    3. Iones · 1I is 1.

    100 + 70 + 1 = 171

    No subtraction is needed here: every letter is the same size or smaller than the one before it, so you simply add them up.
