[RichardE]

1/3 = .333
2/3 = .666
3/3 = 1
3/3 = .99999999999999.......
1 = .99999...

That is all :beer:

Hurray, another student understands a simple fact that any calculus student who understands what he or she is doing can prove. Everything after this in the thread is just neffing. No one has to take one for the team to get this repost locked. -Anandtech Moderator DrPizza

u shoulda said it like this:

.333 = 1/3
3 x .333 = 3 x 1/3
.999 = 3/3
.999 = 1

Yeah. But .333 isn't really 1/3.

Am I the only one on the internet who's never heard this before? I was here for the airplane nonsense so I don't understand how I missed it.

1/3 != .333 so I'm not sure I understand how this is even vaguely interesting.

1/3 = 0.333...
