.999 repeating and unity are separate quantities.
An infinitely small difference gives them
another kind of behaving like equality.

Eternal smallest infinitesimal build
the infinite sequence of .999 repeating.

1 divided by 3 is 1/3, which is 0.333...
1/3 times 3 is 1, and 0.333... times 3 is also 1. However, 0.333 times 3 is also 0.999... so obviously 1=0.999...

.333 times three is not one. It is .999 repeating instead.

In a different thread, Mitch, I asked you to tell me how 1/3 was expressed in decimal form... and you told me it was 0.333... Are now telling me that you were incorrect? You are apparently very confused. As I've said, math is not your strong point...
