Guys no offence,
But the imperial system is antiquated and severely outdated. Our cousins on the left hand side of the pond need to catch up.
Working in base 10 I.e. metric is so easy. Who the hell wants to work in base 12 or 16 other than a computer nerd who has to use hexadecimal.
Sorry it’s the boring engineer in me, plus I’m European, sort of. Well I was last year. ?

1/3 is 1/3 or 0.3 recurring. 0.3333333333333333333333.

0.3 is less than 1/3, 0.34 is more than 1/3. There is no true accurate decimal equivalent of 1/3, the nearest is 0.3 * infinity which is another brain fcuk. Defo going to bed now.
