1 × 1,000 + 4 × 100 + 4 × 10 + 7 × 1 = 1,447. The signs are simply repeated and added; where they sit on the line is a matter of layout, not value.
Babylonian
2 corner wedges + 4 vertical wedges (sixties place), 7 vertical wedges (units place)
24 × 60 + 7 = 1447. Places are separated by a space on the tablet, with the higher place written first.
