Hello there!
Today I had a discussion with my collegues about whether 0,99. periodically
is the same value as 1. My statement is:
Suppose X = 0,99. periodical
Multiply by 10, so you get 10X=9,99.
Subtract 1X (0,99.) 9X=9
Divide by 9 and you get X=1
Is this equation and therefore the above statement correct?
By the way, could you tell me, who is/are DR.MATH and SWARTHMORE?
Thanks much, bye KOOPS@MAGNET.AT
