Answer:


0.\bar{9}=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions are formed with a 9 as a denominator and the numerator is the number that repeats. So, following the same rule, we can say that 0.999... is equivalent to:


0.\bar{9}=(9)/(9)

However, 9/9 is equal to 1, so:


0.999\ldots=0.\bar{9}=1

Therefore, the answer is:


0.\bar{9}=1
