.333... Not .333

The "..." Here represents an infinitely repeating number.

In this context 1/3 = .333...

There's lots of proofs for this but this is the simplest one.

.333... = 1/3
.333... • 3 = .999...
1/3 • 3 = 1
Therefore .999... = 1

Thanks for this, I'm sending it to my Scrum Master.

It's also possible that there are multiple filters. So this might be A filter and not THE filter.
