    You’re being downvoted because you’re wrong.

    My point was only that .9 repeating is still less than 1 in tangible measurement

    If it’s less than 1, then it isn’t repeating indefinitely, which is what the ellipsis indicates.

      I appreciate you taking the time, and I understand where I was wrong. Thank you

      EDIT I’m going to take down my comments because it’s affecting my mental health, so for those of you that see it as deleted by creator, I made an incorrect statement, was given information on why I was wrong, and that’s about it. Please just downvote this to oblivion instead, I think I will process this being down voted better

        This is the third time today I’ve seen someone admit they were wrong and thank the person that explained it to them. I know lemmy is different from reddit but holy hell that’s unheard of on the internet in general.

        Keep being excellent, you and everyone else on this site.
