  • Yeah mine does not do this, here are the toggles I have on mine which might make a difference

    <think>

    Alright, let me figure out which number is bigger between 9.21 and 9.1999999999. Hmm, okay. Both numbers start with 9. so the whole number part is the same. The difference must be in the decimal parts.

    First, I’ll write them down to compare digit by digit after the decimal point:

    • 9.21 is the same as 9.2100000000 if we extend it to match the same number of decimal places.

    • 9.1999999999 has more 9s in its decimal places.

    Starting from the first decimal digit:

    • The tenths place: both have 2 and 1 respectively. Wait, no—hold on. Let me check again.

    Wait a second, maybe I messed up. Let’s parse each number correctly:

    For 9.21:

    • Tenths place (first after decimal): 2
    • Hundredths place: 1 The rest are zeros beyond that if we need more places.

    For 9.1999999999:

    • Tenths place: 1
    • Then, the hundredths is 9, followed by all those 9s up to the tenth decimal digit?

    Wait, actually let me clarify the positions properly. Let’s write both numbers with enough decimals:

    9.21 can be written as 9.2100000000

    9.1999999999 is already given.

    Comparing digit by digit after the decimal point:

    • Tenths place: 2 vs. 1 → Here, 9.21 has a higher tenths digit (2 > 1).

    Since the first differing digit at the tenths place is already larger for 9.21, there’s no need to look further into the other decimal places because even if all subsequent digits in 9.199… are 9s, they can’t overcome the difference in the tenths place. For example:

    The first number has 0.2 in tenths vs the second having only 0.1. The rest of the decimals add up to less than 0.01 for the second number (since it’s 0.09 + 0.009 etc., which sums to 0.09 repeating, approaching but never reaching 0.1).

    Therefore, even with all those trailing 9s in 9.199…, its value is still less than 9.2 (since it’s like 9.1 plus almost 0.1 but not quite), so 9.21 is larger. </think>

    The number 9.21 is larger than 9.1999999999.

    Here’s why:

    1. Compare the tenths place (first digit after the decimal):
      • 9.21 has a 2 in the tenths place.
      • 9.1999999999 has a 1 in the tenths place.

    Since 2 > 1, 9.21 is already larger at this stage. Even though 9.1999999999 continues with many 9s afterward, they cannot overcome the difference caused by having only 1 in the tenths place compared to the 2 in 9.21.

    Final Answer:

    \boxed{9.21}


  • Well that’s interesting because I got something completely different locally

    <think>
    
    Okay, let me figure out how many times the letter "r" appears in the word "strawberry." First, I'll write down the word to visualize it better: S-T-R-A-W-B-E-R-R-Y.
    
    Now, I'll go through each letter one by one. Starting with S, T – that's two letters without an R. The third letter is R, so that's one. Then A, W, B, E – those don't have Rs. Next comes another R, making it two. After that, there's another R, bringing the count to three. Finally, the last letters are Y. 
    
    Wait, let me double-check because sometimes I might miscount. Let me break it down again:
    
    S (1), T (2), R (3) – first R here. Then A (4), W (5), B (6), E (7). Next is R again (8) – that's the second R. Another R comes after (9th position?), so third R, and then Y (10). 
    
    Hmm, maybe I confused the positions. Let me spell it out with numbers:
    
    1. S
    2. T
    3. R (1st R)
    4. A
    5. W
    6. B
    7. E
    8. R (2nd R)
    9. R (3rd R)
    10. Y
    
    Yes, so the letters at positions 3, 8, and 9 are Rs. That totals three times. Wait, does "strawberry" have two or three Rs? Let me confirm by spelling it again: S-T-R-A-W-B-E-R-R-Y. Between the B and E, then after that, it's R-R-Y. So there are three Rs total.
    </think>
    
    The letter “r” appears **3 times** in the word "strawberry."  
    
    Here’s the breakdown:  
    S T **R** A W B E **R** **R** Y  
    
    Count ’em: 1 (third letter), 2 (eighth letter), and 3 (ninth letter). 🍓
