No. It's always less than one, however infinitesimally small. It will never be one, and therefore cannot be one.

Two numers are identical when there is no third number between them.
So yes, 0.9999... = 1
Nicholas Morris
Easy proof.
0.999999... x 10 = 9.9999999...
9.99999... - 0.999999 = 9
So 10 x 0.99999999... - 1 x 0.999999999... = 9
9 x 0.99999999... = 9
0.999999... = 1

To imply that repeating digits of 9 at the end will always have a 1 at the last decimal place of its difference when subtracted from one
Logan Young
>infinitesimally small
Correct
However math tends to simplify this for mainstream consumption so they don't have to process irrationals and deal with infinity
Chase Harris
There is a number between them

Thought only /sci/fags were discussing this shit.
