I think you might be one of the very rare cases that is too stupid to learn.
1 Dozen divided by 3 = .333… Dozen. The division can’t be completed. There are 3 parts of .333… and 1 part that is the remainder, that can’t be divided equally by 3, so it goes on infinitely!
But we know that 12 eggs can be divided into 3 equal parts of 4, or 4/12=1/3. But .333… x 3 = .999… NOT 1.0
Note that the “9” in the statement “base 9” is a base 10 number. There is no number “9” in base “9.” The base 9 equivalent to the 9 in base 10 is 10. It is a “1” in the “Nines” decimal position. It’s like “10” in base 10 is a 1 in the “Tens” decimal position.
There is no number 10 in base 10, or any base. 10.0 is a 1 in the 2nd decimal position to the left of the decimal point. In base 10 that is the “Tens” decimal position, and in base 9 it is the “Nines” decimal position. LOL
In base 9, 10.0 means “1 Nine.” In base 10, 10.0 means “1 Ten.”
Again, the numbers are 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
The base 9 “.1” is equal to the base 10 '.111…"
So the base 9 “.1” and the base 10 “.111…” are both equal to the base 10 11.111…% of 1.0
The base 9 “.3” is equal to the base 10 “.333…”
So the base 9 “.3” and the base 10 “.333…” are both equal to the base 10 33.333…% of 1.0
In base 9, 1.0 is broken down into the base 10 equivalent of 9 parts (“10” parts in base 9 ( a 1 in the “Nines” decimal position in base 9)).
In base 10 1.0 is broken down into 10 parts (a 1 in the “Tens” decimal position in base 10).
The 9 (base 10 “9”) parts of 1.0 in base 9 are:
.1
.2
.3
.4
.5
.6
.7
.8
1.0
The 10 parts of 1.0 in base 10 are:
.1
.2
.3
.4
.5
.6
.7
.8
.9
1.0
If you disagree with this then tell me what the new numbers are.
I already showed you this process, do I need to post it yet again??
Both Obsrvr and motor cannot seem to have an honest disagreement with others without it turning into an insult. Next time either one of you calls someone stupid, narcissistic, etc, for just having a thought that disagrees with your own, there’s going to be moderator action.
If you can’t say “I disagree with you, and here’s why” WITHOUT throwing a personal jab into it, you’re not doing a very good job at philosophy.
There is no “9.0” so there is no such thing as saying “base 9” in that world. In that world it is base 10 (which means a 1 in the Nines decimal position.)
