In this section, we will illustrate the easy method of converting the Roman numeral MXCVIII to numbers.
MXCVIII = M + (C – X) + V + I + I + I
MXCVIII = 1000 + (100 – 10) + 5 + 1 + 1 + 1
MXCVIII = 1098
Why is the Roman Numeral of 1098 indicated as MXCVIII?

Find the Difference Between MXCVIII and DLI.
Roman Numeral MXCVIII is equal to 1098 and DLI is 551. Now, MXCVIII – DLI = 1098 – 551 = 547. Since, 547 = DXLVII, therefore, MXCVIII – DLI = DXLVII.
Find the Sum of CCCXXXIII and MXCVIII Roman Numerals.
CCCXXXIII = 333 and MXCVIII = 1098. Now, CCCXXXIII + MXCVIII = 333 + 1098 = 1431. Since, MCDXXXI = 1431, therefore, the sum of CCCXXXIII and MXCVIII roman numerals is MCDXXXI.
