infinite periodic number: we know that all infinite periodic numbers are rational;does any one know how to write 0.999... as a fraction? thx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok let x be 0.999

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what will be the result if we multiply both side with10?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

this doesn't help ,you'll get 9x=9 so x=1

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok let find out with series

Parth (parthkohli):

@ghass1978 \(0.\dot{9} = 1\)

Parth (parthkohli):

\[0.999999\cdots = 1\]I saw a good explanation for this.

Parth (parthkohli):

We know that,\[x - x = 0\]And,\[1 - 0.99999999\cdots = 0.000000000\cdots = 0\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok,then i'll use it like this in class :) thx

Parth (parthkohli):
