Repeated subtraction in math refers to the process of subtracting the same number multiple times from a given quantity. It is often used to find the result of division or to break down a larger number into smaller equal parts. For example, if you have 12 apples and you subtract 3 apples repeatedly, you are performing repeated subtraction.
1/3 = .333... 2/3 = .666... +___________ 3/3 = .999... = 1 Reason: For two numbers to be different there has to be another number that lies between them. Example: 3 and 4 are different because 3.5 is between them. Question: What number lies between .999... and 1? Answer: There isn't one. Conclusion: .999... = 1
