so we can just ignore the last digit?

for A replaced last digit "0" with 41
for B continue with 41

The best thing to do here is to just write out a few repetitions and see what happens:

Quantity A: 0.01410141014101410...
Quantity B: 0.01410141014101410...

And now we can see that they're both the same.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

The question comes from the time the board was in its infant stage. From then a lot of things have been improved.

I have formatted the question properly now. The answer is still C

Thank you for your support guys.
