Which is bigger do you think?
Hello guys I’m Yuya and I major in mathematics. Have you ever wondered about it? It’s a very popular issue in the math world. Do you think 1 is bigger? Is that true? I’ll try to explain this to you.
First we define x = 0.999… . And we multiply x by 10x = 9.9999…. It means: 10x-x. Is it OK? Let’s compare x = 0.999… with 10x = 9.999….
It’s true. I’ll deduct x = 0.999… from 10x = 9.999…. : it means 10x-x.
It will be x = 1. Do you understand the above equation?
However, we defined x = 0.999…
So it will be 1 = 0.999…
They don’t have difference in the math world. Are you interested in mathematics?

I am so interested in your article!!
According to your article, there are no difference between 1,000……….1 and 1.But how can we prove it?
I think there are a lot of questions in the world and that makes the world interesting.
Hi, I’ m Mizuki. Your article was really attractive to me! I liked math the same as English when I was a high school student, so your post reminded me of that.
Is their really a difference between 0.999… and 1? I want to know that very much!
