How DCXX is built
Roman numerals are written one decimal place at a time, largest first.
- DChundreds · 6D (500) plus C (100) makes 600.
- XXtens · 2X written 2 times: 2 × 10 = 20.
600 + 20 = 620
No subtraction is needed here: every letter is the same size or smaller than the one before it, so you simply add them up.
Mistakes to avoid
- There's no letter for zero. The zero is simply left out, which is why 620 has 2 parts, not 3.
