minus-squareColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoExcept it doesn’t. The math is wrong. Do the exact same formula, but use .5555… instead of .9999… Guess it turns out .5555… is also 1.
minus-squareWldFyre@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoLol you can’t do math apparently, take a logic course sometime Let x=0.555… 10x=5.555… 10x=5+x 9x=5 x=5/9=0.555…

Let x=0.555…
10x=5.555…
10x=5+x
9x=5
x=5/9=0.555…
Oh honey
