I wish all posts in the forum could have as much thought as the posts in these math question threads. This question has only opened more theories. If we take an infinite number, let's say, 39485734985.349857394858794058785... And the numbers kept going to infinite, yet all the numbers were mixed up (unlike 0.999... Where all the numbers before the decimal are "9"), at what point do the numbers not exist? The fact is, they all exist. Same with the 0.00...1. Does the 1 not exist because there is an infinite amount of 0s after it? No, it does exist. Our minds just cannot comprehend "infinite." 0.999... does not equal 1.
