    How MMXIII is built

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

    1. MMthousands · 2MM is 2 × M (1,000), written out 2 times.
    2. Xtens · 1X is 10.
    3. IIIones · 3I written 3 times: 3 × 1 = 3.

    2,000 + 10 + 3 = 2,013

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