1/3x3 is 1 but divide 1 by 3 and then multiplying the answer with 3 is 0.999etc... dafuq?
This is an example of how 0.99999... can equal 1. Strange, but get deeper in these type of equations this makes sense.
+128408 One of our members, Alan, could tell you precisely why this happens, but
If you key in (1/3) * 3 the calculator will interpret this as (1 * 3) / 3 = 3/ 3 = 1
However.....if you key in 1/3....you will get the fraction's decimal representation of .3333...
And multiplying this by 3 = .99999....
