MMXCVIII
MMXCVIII is the Roman numeral representation of the number 2098. In the Roman numeral system, letters are used to represent specific numerical values. The numeral M represents 1000, X represents 10, C represents 100, and V represents 5. The numeral I represents 1. When placed in sequence, Roman numerals are generally added together. Therefore, MMXCVIII is broken down as follows: M (1000) + M (1000) + XC (90) + V (5) + I (1) + I (1) + I (1). However, the subtractive principle is also used, where a smaller numeral placed before a larger numeral indicates subtraction. In MMXCVIII, XC represents 100 - 10, which equals 90. Thus, MMXCVIII translates to 1000 + 1000 + 90 + 5 + 1 + 1 + 1, totaling 2098. This number falls within the 3rd millennium.
