To convert the year 2010 into Roman numerals, we start by breaking down the number into its constituent parts based on place value.
2010 can be decomposed as:
- 2000 (two thousand)
- 10 (ten)
In Roman numerals:
- 2000 is represented as "MM". The letter "M" stands for 1000, so "MM" means 1000 + 1000 = 2000.
- 10 is represented as "X". The letter "X" stands for 10.
By combining these components, 2010 in Roman Numerals is "MMX".
