CMXLI

CMXLI is a Roman numeral. In the standard system of Roman numerals, C represents 100, M represents 1000, X represents 10, and I represents 1. Roman numerals are typically written in descending order of value, with larger numerals preceding smaller ones. When a numeral of smaller value is placed before a numeral of larger value, it signifies subtraction.

To decipher CMXLI, we can break it down. CM represents 900, as C (100) is placed before M (1000), indicating 1000 - 100. XL represents 40, as X (10) is placed before L (50), indicating 50 - 10. Finally, I represents 1. Therefore, CMXLI is the sum of these parts: 900 + 40 + 1, which equals 941 in the Arabic numeral system. This representation follows the established rules for forming Roman numerals, including subtractive notation.
