If you assume that .99 repeating is actually 1. Then the same logic means that .88 repeating is really .99 repeating. Then .77 repeating is really .88 repeating. Also .66 repeating is .77 repeating. So you are saying that .66 repeating is really 1?
Ok this is just a plain illogical argument here. There is a infinite series/limit expression that backs up 0.9repeating = 1 argument
0.8repeating = 0.8 + 0.08 +0.008 + ... = sum(0 to inf) 0.8*1/10^n = 0.8/(1-1/10) = 8/9
Same argument as before.
