the point of my qualifying 3/3 into the other ways was to prove that there is no "always" in math. only often enough that we assume, and are correct.

Please don't evade the question. Your motives for posting what you posted are irreleavant to the question. It's very straightforward.

You posted:

3/3 = .999999....? no, it is 3 divided by 3, or "1"

Is 0.999... exactly equal to 1, or not?

A "yes" or a "no" will suffice.
