.999999999~

It's equal to one, and the proff is through the way you convert rational repeating numbers to fractions. if you let x = .999999999~ and let 10*x = 9.9999 repeating then 10 x - x = 9x = 9.99999 repeating - .99999 repeating = 9. SO 9x is 9 and x is equal to one. and since we started out wiht x equaling .9999 repeating we know that .9999 repeating = 1.

This could be done with .999999999~ anbd the result would show that .999999999~ = 1
x = .333...
10x = 3.333...
10x = 3.333...
- x = 0.333...
9x = 3
x = 3/9
x=1/3
.333... = x = 1/3

COVID-995

When healthy or asymptomatic members of the public, who suspect that they might have contracted Covid-19 but with no life-threatening or emergency conditions, are conveniently dialing 995, thus depriving those who genuinely need the service urgently from doing so.

How many lives could have been saved globally had there been fewer or no COVID-995 calls?
