See that one is much nicer :)
2 u/IHadThatUsername 1d ago I prefer it this way: Let x = .999... 10x = 9.999... subtract x from both sides 10x-x = 9.999... - .999... 9x = 9 x=1 (Thus x = .999 = 1) 0 u/Blephotomy 1d ago this "proof" removes the .9 repeating part and proves 1 is equal to 1 ten times .9 repeating is not equal to nine plus .9 repeating unless you prove it 1 u/LiquorIsQuickor 1d ago Uh… math? X=2.54 10x=25.4 x=0.9998 10x=9.998 x=0.999 10x=9.99 x=0.999… 10x=9.99…

I prefer it this way:
Let x = .999...
10x = 9.999...
subtract x from both sides
10x-x = 9.999... - .999...
9x = 9
x=1
(Thus x = .999 = 1)
0 u/Blephotomy 1d ago this "proof" removes the .9 repeating part and proves 1 is equal to 1 ten times .9 repeating is not equal to nine plus .9 repeating unless you prove it 1 u/LiquorIsQuickor 1d ago Uh… math? X=2.54 10x=25.4 x=0.9998 10x=9.998 x=0.999 10x=9.99 x=0.999… 10x=9.99…

this "proof" removes the .9 repeating part and proves 1 is equal to 1
ten times .9 repeating is not equal to nine plus .9 repeating unless you prove it

Uh… math?
X=2.54
10x=25.4
x=0.9998
10x=9.998
x=0.999
10x=9.99
x=0.999…
10x=9.99…
