Then how do we not know there's not something at the end of all the 9's. What if there is a 1 or a 3 or a 4 we can't see due to the fact we think that it's just constant 9's. 1.1 isn't even one. It is 1 and 1/10.Originally Posted by Kirobaito
There's no such thing as an infinite .0000 with a 1 at the end. If something is infinite then it never ends. If there was a 1 at the end then it wouldn't be infinite.If you add the infinity nothing does, but if there is no infinity and the number spiraled throughout forever, an infinate .00000 with a 1 at the end would as well. .9999999999999999999~ then .00000000000000000>1~. 0 does not = 1.But what number separates .99999~ and 1? The answer is 0.000000~, or 0. Therefore, they are the same number.
(1/3)(3) = 3/3 does not equal .9999 because it is a whole. .9999 is a .000001 away from being a whole. 1 is a whole number. .9999 is a decimal. Yes it can be rounded. But it's like when people say there's a 99% chance of a medicine not working, people believe it as fool proof, when one person comes in and the medicine does not work, that is the reason of it not being 100% and or in this case, 1 or a full whole number.
So if we don't count as 1.1 as 1. (1 1/10)
Why would we count .9999~
