The Roman numeral conversion for the number 4986 is MMMMCMLXXXVI.
M = 1000 (MMMM = 4000)
Convert the number 4986 to a Roman CM = 900
numeral. LXXX = 80
VI = 6
4000 + 900 + 80 + 6 = 4986
Step 1: A mixed number can be changed to an improper fraction by multiplying the
denominator and the whole number and then adding the numerator: 3 × 3 = 9 + 2 =
