As a terminating decimal, 0.99999999999999 = 99999999999999/100000000000000
If that is a repeating decimal 0.999..., then:
let x = 0.999...
Multiplying both sides by 10 gives:
10x = 9.999...
Subtracting the original gives:
10x - x = 9.999... - 0.999...
→ 9x = 9
→ x = 1
So 0.999... repeating is the same as 1.
