In ancient Rome the equivalent of 8 was IIX thus using less numerals or VIII in the same way that 9 was IX or VIIII.
But in the Middle Ages the rules governing the Roman numeral system were changed to how we still use them today as for example we would convert 1999 into Roman numerals as MCMXCIX but the Romans probably wrote it out simply as IMM (2000-1)
Yes. Eight can be written as VIII or IIX when writing in Roman numerals, though the former is more commonly used. According to Wikipedia IIX was used more commonly during the middle ages, though still rarer than VIII.
IIX means 8.For the Time, 8.
8 8 1981 in Roman numerals is VIII VIII MDCCCCLXXXI or IIX IIX XXMMI. Note that 1981 is not MCMLXXXI in Roman numerals.
During the Roman era the equivalent of 2-1990-8 was probably II-XMM-IIX. But in today's revised notation of Roman numerals 2-1990-8 is written out as II-MCMXC-VIII. The former notation of Roman numerals seems more plausible than the latter.
IIX - II - MMVII

IIX - II - MMVII
That is not a correctly formed Roman Numeral. It could be meant to be an 8.
LLX and IIX both aren't roman numerals. L is 50. LL would be 100 but C is 100. IIX would be 8 but VIII is 8.
There are many methods to representing Roman Numerals. The one you have written is an alternate form of expressing the value for 8. Although the commonly accepted modern method would be shown as VIII, IIX is a valid representation of Roman Numerals and historically was often used as well - and is therefore accurate. In simpler terms, it's the symbol for the number 8.
Tradionally 8 is represented as VIII in Roman numerals but in parts of Spain 8 is given as IIX so therefore both formats are acceptable.
In today's terms 98 expressed in Roman numerals is XCVIII But the rules governing the Roman numeral system were introduced during the Middle Ages centuries after the decline of the Roman Empire. Therefore it follows that the Romans themselves would have probably wrote out 98 as LXXXXVIII which can be simplified to IIC in the same way as the Roman numerals IIII and VIIII (4 and 9) are simplified to IV and IX respectively. In parts of Spain the numerals for VIII (8) are written out as IIX.
In today's terms 10-08-1990 changed into Roman numerals is X-VIII-MCMXC. However, the Romans themselves probably wrote this out as X-VIII-MDCCCCLXXXX which can be simplified to X-IIX-XMM in the same way the Roman numerals IIII and VIIII (4 and 9) are simplified to IV and IX respectively.
In today's terms it is written as (VIII)CDLXX = 8000+470 = 8470 But during the Roman era the Romans themselves would have calculated the equivalent of 8470 on an abacus counting device as (V)MMMCCCCLXX and probably simplified it to in written form to L(IIX)DXX = -50+8520 = 8470
