Actually, it was my son's 6th Grade School project from 2 weeks ago. Apparently no one here is smarter than a 6th grader!

Sweeeet, more people smarter than me. Do you think you can get your son to do my Law and Ethics homework? I really am tired of that class.

Doesn't matter! Uses same principle.

Mr Lefty · 11-25-2008, 05:47 PM

so .9999999 (inf.) =1.19999 (inf.)

fuck in that logic I'm a milioniare... caus .50=.51=.52=.53 ect...

Seriously?

.99999r = 1

.0999999r = .1

add that .1 to the 1.1 = 1.2

AKA "rounding up"

Semantics, FTW.

You need help in reading more than math. I didn't say that .999999... = 1.19999... I said it uses the same principle. Had I said to convert .99999.... to a fraction in it's simplest form someone would have google searched .99999... and found out that .9999999...=1 When you calculate the ugly repeating decimal of 1.19999... will get 1& 1/5 or 1.2.

Not semantics! .99999....= 1! No rounding!
