0.9 infinite does NOT equal 1.
let me explain in the most simple way, you can get infinity close to 1, but not at 1. this is the same concept of limits,
for example, f(x)=x/2 what is the limit of f(x), its 0, you can never get to zero, its always half, you can get indefinitely close, but not at it. here is a video on limits, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=riXcZT2ICjA also, I checked the the last proof and its wrong, lets just simplify to 0.999 10x=9.99, as you see, its not 9.999 with the one extra, which is the mistake. continuing 9.99-x= 9.99-0.999= 9.999-x 9.99-0.999=8.991 8.991/9= 0.999. now in the first proof, let me just say, 0.333 is a very lazy APPROXIMATION of 1/3 its not actually equal to it, however 0.999.../3 IS equal to it, for example 1.999/3= 0.666 then infinite 3s. but 2/3= 0.6 infinite, if this was true, then square roots would be rational, which we know is not. also limits would not be a thing, there is always going to be one more space for that 9.
