If I start at 1 and my goal is to get to 2, I could move to 1.1 and be a little bit closer to 2. Then move to 1.11, and be even closer. Then 1.111, so on and so forth. I understand that with each move, the step forward is smaller than the previous one. But it’s moving forward nonetheless. How is it that I can forever move forward, but never get there?
In: Mathematics
Just like there are infinite numbers there are also infinite places after the decimal. Tens, hundreds, thousands,…., Trillions, etc. for ever.
