minus-squarehalvar@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up50arrow-down5·edit-21 year agowell 0.9999… is actually 1 because x = 0.9999... 10x = 9.9999... 10x (9.9999...) - x (0.9999...) = 9 9x = 9 x = 1 so 0.9999... is 1
minus-squareRedditWanderer@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up44·1 year agoThis is muuuch better demonstrated by 1/3 = .33… 2/3 = .66… 3/3 = 0.99… “Repeating” matters in approximations
minus-squareexscape@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up28arrow-down2·1 year agoYes, but 0.99999999999999999999 isn’t 0.999… and therefore not 1, so it’s still wrong.

0.999… is lim(1), not 1.

What?
1 is a constant so lim(1) = 1
