Too often we close the door behind us in our own world of reasoning, once we feel content with how we think it initially works and some of us don't ever try opening that door again.
1/3 = .333-[infinite]

No
No they are not. One refers to an operation, the other to an approximation secondary to the operation. You may ask why is the approximation acceptable but first you must realize that 1/3 is an idealized notion created to imagine various concepts for our particular affairs and such perfect quanta are only realized in quantum manipulations such as entangled photons and the like. In the real world it is hard to ever known when something is exact.But 1/3 and .33inf are the same thing. 1/3 stands for .33inf.

coli nikkaz questioning math I've seen it all
I haven't studied the intricacies of math/science, I'm simply asking a question. You seem like a pretty decent type, the type to not resort to name calling and general bashing of the honestly inquisitive. With that being said, this is not in my field, what the hell did you just say? In layman's terms please. I was up with you until entangled photons.

You don't say fakkit
math is just math it has nothing to do with the universe and photons
why do you idiots think every number has to represent something physical
dumb smart ass naS stans
you idiots watch too many pop science documentaries
0.333333 (terminating at some point) is an approximation
3 repeating is not
that's fascinatingmath is just math it has nothing to do with the universe and photons

"idealized notion created to imagine various concepts for our particular affairs and such perfect quanta are only realized in quantum manipulations such as entangled photons and the like"that's fascinating
WTF ARE U SAYING
1/3 IS 0.333 repeating
ok so
1. even if I wanted to name call, I suck at it and it makes me queasy, so I rarely do it
2. it's like this, most things you measure in your regular life will have some degree of error
so when you cut that pizza in 1/3rds you can never be sure that it is exactly 1/3
when you do lab experiments, say a chemical assay/reaction, your measurements are never perfect as written in the chemical equation reaction, you may say that you collected 1 gram of sulfonyl chloride but even the scale used to measure everything will have a certain degree of acceptable error
integers are naturally ideal, they represent something you rarely experience in real life

WTF ARE U SAYING
1/3 IS 0.333 repeating
well let's go through it piece by piece
something perfect
made up so we can imagine something imaginary
say you are in ancient egypt and you want to separate you acres of land from that of your neighbors
you are going to need to imagine and measure an area, and give solid numbers which can never be solidly measured (in an ideal perfect way, sort like not being able to know the measurable shortest distance possible or the atomic middle)
an entangled photon is the perfect opposite of its twin, nature creates this exactitude.
so you admit that 1/3 is an abstract concept and idealized as perfect ?
yeah you can't have a perfect third of a pizza in reality
what does that have to do with the abstract concept of a third

DeAndre Jordan took 21 free throws.so you admit that 1/3 is an abstract concept and idealized as perfect ?
He hit 7 of them.
DeAndre Jordan made 1/3 of his free throws, exactly. It is not idealized as perfect, it is in fact the exact and precise description of DeAndre Jordan's abysmal free throwing accuracy in the game.
