1=0.999

[sb8160]

it equals 1, but im curious as to what the overall answer in misc was.

Discuss.

[Penile_Dementia]

How you could fail so hard off the bat

1 =/= 0.999

1 = 0.999...

As for the other number in your poll, that is also not equal to 1.

thats not 1

Asymptote....

If it does not touch 1....it is not 1...

[SpineFracturBro]

anyone who says .99 = 1 should probably be shot for lowering the IQ of the planet

Wrong. 0.999... is mathematically indistinguishable from 1.

Correct.

0.99 does not = 1. And crap like that has done half of the confusion in the threads on this topic.

0.999... does = 1.

[Inferne]

Just to reinforce what everyone else is saying, .99 does not equal 1. However, .999... does equal 1.

[Sketchyone]

When you plot them on a physical number plane .99 and 1 and in different positions >>> Not equal

1 = 1

0.999 = 0.999

The algebra is wrong in that meme, 0.999 recurring, when you multiply by 10 = it shifts 1 place over the decimal point. So even though its recurring, when you multiply it by 10, the recurring shifts 1 space to the left infinitely.

Therefore you can't subtract it and get a whole number, e.g. 9 because its 9.9999 recurring infinitely, and 0.9999 recurring infinitely where the 9.9... is always infinity + 1 recurring sequence ahead.

.99999999999999999999999999999999999999 (to infinity idk how to put that bar over the last 9) =/= 1

0.999 = 0.999

You speak of 0.999 recurring as if it was an ongoing process in time. It is not. It is infinitely expressed, but finitely sized, and is indistinguishable from 1. Nothing is approaching anything, nothing is an ongoing process. Nobody has every been able to describe the mathematical difference between it and 1.

equivalent =/= identical

if i **** Mary, or if i **** Susy, it doesn't make a difference. pussy is pussy, they are equivalent.

but, Mary and Susy are not identical, Mary's pussy is not identical to Susy's pussy.

1 and .999999999999999999999 are not identical likewise.

1 = 1

0.999 = 0.999

Trolling? There's nothing wrong with that math. .999... = 1 and there is zero debate among mathematicians. The debate only exists on internet forums among people with limited/no math knowledge.

1 = 1

0.999 = 0.999

I hope you're trolling.

What is 1/3rd? What is 3/3rds?

Representing a number two different ways doesn't make it a different number.
2 and 2. are still "2". 2/1 or 2^1 is still 2.

Mathematically 0.99 repeating is identical to 1... there is no function that will distinguish them.

You may as well say 2/3 =/= 4/6.

Recurring means its a constant .99 to infinity. When you multiply it by 10, it shifts 1 space over the decimal point, infinitely. Therefore when you take away the original recurring sequence from the multiplied one, you will always be left with the recurring that was multiplied being 1 sequence ahead of the original recurring.

e.g. if you named each 9 in the sequence as 1, 2, 3, 4, etc to infinity, the multiplied number 9.999 will always be 1 number ahead than the 0.999 sequence

Oh look. Math made by humans being manipulated AGAIN.

Using the example of 1/3 of water.... Sorry but 1/3+1/3+1/3 = 3/3 = 1.

Congrats you can manipulate numbers by using specific formulas that get the answer you want.

Isn't there also one that proves 1 = 2?

But obviously 1 cup of water does NOT equal 2 cups of water.

True. But 1 and 0.999.... are identical.

Unlike 1 and 0.999, you can quantify a difference between Mary and Susy.

[FeFocus]

So, you guys who say 0.99999 doesn't equate to 1 disagree with the people who developed the theory leading to literally ALL of the technology you use... right...

[RichieW]

1 is an integer
0.99... is not

[Penile_Dementia]

Oh look. Math made by humans being manipulated AGAIN.

Using the example of 1/3 of water.... Sorry but 1/3+1/3+1/3 = 3/3 = 1.

Why are you saying sorry, as if your assertion is contradicting something? That's the entire point of the example.

Congrats you can manipulate numbers by using specific formulas that get the answer you want.

Isn't there also one that proves 1 = 2?

But obviously 1 cup of water does NOT equal 2 cups of water.

wat

please, do what nobody has ever been able to do and actually quantify the difference between 0.999... and 1.

There is no proof that 1=2, please find me that one.
