If 1/3 is equal to 0.333333333 and 2/3 is equal to 0.666666666, then what 3/3 actually equal to?

 

Is it equal to 1 or does it follow the same rule as 1/3 and 2/3?

By the pattern, you would expect 3/3 to  = .999999..........

 

However, it can be shown that  .999999.........  actually  = 1

 

So......3/3  = 1

 

[Strange, huh ???]

 

 

cool cool cool

Don't overthink the problem! You got it right, when you said 3/3=1. That is it.
