How CDXXXV is built
Roman numerals are written one decimal place at a time, largest first.
- CDhundreds · 4C before D means 500 − 100 = 400. This saves writing CCCC.
- XXXtens · 3X written 3 times: 3 × 10 = 30.
- Vones · 5V is 5.
400 + 30 + 5 = 435
The pair CD uses subtraction: a smaller letter before a larger one is taken away from it. Only six pairs work this way: IV, IX, XL, XC, CD and CM. More on subtraction
Mistakes to avoid
- Not CCCCXXXV (8 letters). That adds everything up without subtraction. The Romans sometimes wrote numbers this way, and clocks still show 4 as IIII, but today CDXXXV (6 letters) is the standard.
