Theorem 0.999... 15804

Description: The recurring decimal 0.999..., which is defined as the infinite sum 0.9 + 0.09 + 0.009 + ... i.e. 9 / 10↑1 + 9 / 10↑2 + 9 / 10↑3 + ..., is exactly equal to 1, according to ZF set theory. Interestingly, about 40% of the people responding to a poll at http://forum.physorg.com/index.php?showtopic=13177 disagree. (Contributed by NM, 2-Nov-2007.) (Revised by AV, 8-Sep-2021.)
