Eab, the problem with the "infinity times zero" question is that infinity isn't even a number. Also most of the time you're looking at that, 0 isn't a number either. They're both behaviors.

@Shameless, 1/3 means "one third of". If you take .999999 = 1, then that's fine, since 1/3 of .999999 is .3333333

However if you don't, then 1/3 isn't exactly equal to .3333. It's more like .33333 1/3

=P

 

EDIT: Shameless, infinity times zero is not zero. Don't criticize people for butchering math and then do it yourself in the same post!

1/3 means 1 divided by 3 like all fractions.

Zero is always zero, no matter what you choose to multiply it by.
