This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Do that same math, but use .5555... instead of .9999...
Have you tried it? You get 0.555... which kinda proves the point does it not?
???
Not sure what you're aiming for. It proves that the setup works, I suppose.
x = 0.555...
10x = 5.555...
10x = 5 + 0.555...
10x = 5+x
9x = 5
x = 5/9
5/9 = 0.555...
So it shows that this approach will indeed provide a result for x that matches what x is supposed to be.
Hopefully it helped?
