im gonna reblog this with an unfun fact: 1 divided in thirds is actually 0.333 repeating, on into infinity. a line of not-quite-thirds-of-a-percent getting ever smaller, forever. multiply that endless line by three and you get a different size of endless line: 0.999 repeating.

and unfortunately 0.999 repeating equals 1. it's not close to 1, it is the same thing as 1.

this is because the difference between 0.999... and 1, is a fraction that gets infinitely smaller for as long as you zoom in. they're the same number. the difference between them is infinitely small. you will never be able to reach the final sum of how much smaller the fraction is from the whole integer and therefore it's mathematically not there.

where is that 0...001? it's at the end of infinity. it's nowhere. therefore, it isn't.

Which makes this a great metaphor! Slice up your cake (integer) into several pieces (decimal representations) and just a little bit, an infinitely small crumb, is left stuck to the knife (number system by which we attempt to concretely represent abstract concepts).
