Right. Infinity is not a number. So all examples of a billion nines, or a billion zeros followed by one, do not apply.

So if 0.0 is followed by infinite zeros, you can't put a one after it. There is no "after it". 0.0r1 = 0.0r = 0.

Therefore 1 - 0.9r = 0.0r = 0.
One divided by infinity = 0.0r = 0.
