this seemed to help krystal understand:

This makes no sense. if you want to look at it like that
what do you subtract from 1 to get to 0.888...

and the point i was trying to make about the .999... may as well not be considered a number is because saying .999... = 1 is the same as saying .111... = .2 because it is just taking it up to the next number after the decimal.

But .111.... is not equal to .2, the limit of .111... as it goes to infinity is 1/9, and the limit of .2 as it goes to infinity is 2/10 or 1/5.
