Infinity is not an aspect of the real number system, so there cannot exist an infinite repeating decimal in the real number system. Sorry.
0.999... has a built in arbitrary finite limit of accuracy that totally allows for a smallest 0.000...1 part to exist

>> No.9759499

>>9758938
Oh i didn't realize we were talking about numbers that come between other numbers.

Of course that means there exists a 0.999.... with at least one more 9 than 0.999.... which could come before 1.
I mean if you want to validate infinity like the desperate shiteater you likely are, we could just say there are an infinite amount of these 0.999... values of ever increasing length. There are as many real numbers between 0.999... and 1 as there are between 0 and 1. There are as many real numbers between 0.999... and 1 as there are integers between 0 and infinity.

Stupid brainlet, you can't fathom infinity.

Wrong, real numbers are constructed as infinite sets.

>> No.9759504

>>9759493
This is quite wrong. There are no infinitely large numbers in the real numbers, but there ARE infinite decimal expansions. There are no accuracy limits in the real numbers, accuracy can keep extend indefinitely.

BOTH POSTS SAY AN INFINITE DECIMAL CAN EXIST, BUT AN INFINITE INTEGER CANNOT, USING THE SOLE REASONING THAT A DECIMAL EXTENDS INDEFINITELY; MEANWHILE THE REALS EXTEND INDEFINITELY.

THERE IS NO INFINITE INTEGER
THERE IS NO INFINITE DECIMAL

I think he was making fun of the "proof" in that pic
it claims
x = 0.999...
10x = 9.999...

it's essentially the same debate in a different scope, but if x + 1/∞ = 10 then you'd have to say 10x + 10/∞ = 10

0.999 * 10 hypothetically could be considered 9.999...0

>> No.9759579

>>9759549
yeah but the proof in that pic assumes an infinitesimal number can be multiplied in the first place
it's essentially equal to saying 0.999... - 1 = 0 thus they're equal

really, this argument is just one of many paradoxes you can make by trying to bridge the gap between finite and infinite

You are abusing the ellipsis notation.
All digits after "9..." are 9, unless you specify a specific finite span of those digits, in which case " 0.999...8" is finite and terminates, and if you then take the average of a terminating real and 1, then yes, you would find a value between them, but just mentioning a "9...8" is non-sequitur.
