Mount Fuji is a greatly revered mountain in Japan. Using the 'san' honorific in Fuji-san is a way of showing respect, the same way as if you were addressing a person politely in Japanese speech.

How is Mt Fuji written in Japanese?

The short answer is that you don't, as "mount" is an English word that would be rendered in katakana, rather than hiragana (thus: マオント [I think]). "Fuji" would be rendered as ふじ in hiragana. In Japanese, the mountain is referred to as "Fujisan," the "san" part meaning mountain (さん・山). Hence, a katakana rendering of the name would be ふじさん (this being in kanji 富士山).
