Only in your head, it does not to any mathematicians or claculators.

If the fraction represented the actual number then you would never be able to multiply it because you have to multiply every number in behind the decimal and that would just go on forever considering it is an infinite string. so the cut off has to be somewhere.

Jesus, this is simply not true, a fraction IS the number and when you multiply the fraction it takes into account the entire number. Please read up on the definitions of the rational numbers before you start arguing about something you obviously do not understand or comprehend.


BTW just in case you didn't realize it the phrase you used of rounded infinite decimal makes no sense, you can't round an infinite decimal and still have the same number you started with.
