There! I just took a few minutes to scan these 2 things for you guys now that I've finished my exams.

And since you guys needed something that would seem weird (such as 4 = 5)... Here's this for ya!

Notice that what that means is that 0.999999999999999... is EXACTLY (not approximately) the same thing as 1. Have fun!

0.33333333 isn't the same as 1/3, if the number of 3's is not infinite
The second line:
0.999999... = 3 * 0.3333333...
is not correct

 

[Hylian]

0.33333333 isn't the same as 1/3, if the number of 3's is not infinite

And what I mean there does have an infinite amount of digits. Hence the 0.999999... (I did forget to put the ... on the first line though ). I just didn't use 0.3(3) and 0.9(9) because I'm not sure if everyone uses that notation.

 

[Raistlin1980]

Yeah, but the second line:
0.999999... = 3 * 0.3333333...
is not correct. Why should it be like that?

 

[Hylian]

Yeah, but the second line:
0.999999... = 3 * 0.3333333...
is not correct. Why should it be like that?

I'll go and scan it for ya, be back in a few minutes.

 

[Hylian]

Yeah, but the second line:
0.999999... = 3 * 0.3333333...
is not correct. Why should it be like that?

It is correct, and here's the reason why.

And thus, 0.9(9) = 0.3(3)

 

[Peti]

OMG I fuckin hate maths and physics uke:

 

[Raistlin1980]

It is correct, and here's the reason why.

And thus, 0.9(9) = 0.3(3)

Cool. *thinking*

 

[MagSec4]

Oh christ, you guys have been really bored haven't you

Darkmare, haha, dude you didn't have to write up and scan the explanation for that first one, it was pretty clear from before.
well BodomiC was still arguing with you like a jackass.. but I think he gets it too afterall

Alright I'll play along:

And thus, 0.9(9) = 0.3(3)

Yeah.. that's blatantly incorrect
try again

 

[Hylian]

Yeah.. that's blatantly incorrect
try again

That's why I solved that one correctly

It's correct, grrrr

Are you sure that you can apply that thing about 'Summatory(many things) = Summatory (thing1) + summatory(thing2) + etc' when dealing with infinities?
I'm not sure. There must be some theorem about that somewhere *searching*

 

[MagSec4]

DarkMare:

uh.. no it isn't, you probably meant:

0.9(9) = 0.3(3) * 3

Yeah, you can Besides, the interior of the summatory is just an expression. What it means is that you sum an expression an infinite number of times.

0.9(9) = 0.3(3) * 3

<Monty Python>Oh yeah, you try that with a pineapple!</Monty Python>

Yes, i know what a summatory is. I just thought that there might be an error there, but i guess there weren't. Damn you, i won't be able to sleep tonight!
