MDXIV equals which Arabic numeral?

1504

1514

Understanding Roman numerals relies on adding values, except when a smaller numeral comes before a larger one, which signals subtraction. Here, M is 1000 and D is 500, giving 1500. The X adds 10, bringing the total to 1510. The IV at the end equals 4 (I before V means subtract 1 from 5). Add that to 1510 to get 1514. So the Arabic numeral is 1514.
