... Surely if 9x = 9, then x = 1. But since x also equals .9999999... we get that .9999999... = 1. But this is unconvincing to many people. So here's another argument. Most people who have trouble with this fact oddly don't have trouble with the fact that 1/3 = .3333333... . Well, consider the followin ...
