In that case, your math wasn't much better...

Octal. It must be octal.

I ran the code in LINQPad ( LINQPad - The .NET Programmer's Playground[^] ) and it saved me from thinking at all.
I just looked at the output.
0.9999999999999999999999999999
Otherwise I was thinking it was supposed to be 0.3333 also. 
Intellisense is the only sense I have.
Edit
Also, I tried this in Win10 Calculator and it told me that
1 / 3 = 0
I believe calculator, whatever it says.
Oops, then I noticed it was set to Programmer mode. hahahaa

Nothing strange about that, I can confirm that 1 / 3 = 0, even my calculator agrees (well it had better agree with me)

Yes, but have you checked for all divisor values larger than 1?
Please do so and report back.

That's a lot of work to do myself, but my calculator can do that

So the full readout was 1 / 3 = 0, and will continue to do so until you give me bacon.
You just need a calculator with a bigger screen.

SSN is a required field.

Not surprising. When SSN's were first issued that's what people believed - that it was the mark of the beast.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.

I'm sure that you get to see the taxman only after sundown, ecause bloodsuckers rest in their coffins at daytime. Invoking the devil himself may go a little to far.

A fascinating number, our 666. One of its tricks is that it is the sum of the lowest 6 Roman numerals, arranged in descending order. DCLXVI.

Want to hear something even more fascinating about that number? To start, IIRC, the original King James translation of the book of Revelations describes the mark of the beast as a number calculable by man.
Now, take the English language and assign a number to each letter in ascending order (e.g. A=1,B=2, etc...)
With that we add up all the letters in the word COMPUTER. (english is completely valid in this argument as it is the natural language of it's inventors in this context)
COMPUTER adds up to 111. What do you get by multiplying 111 x 6?
Where am I going with this? For years certain groups have been pushing to make all financial transactions require an embedded computer chip accessible via RFID or other wireless technologies. Basicaly, you'd have to be micro-chipped to buy anything.
Back to the King James version, it states that mark of the beast would be located on the forehead or hand and that people would not be able to buy food or other goods without it. Think about it, where would be the best place to implant a chip for day-to-day transactions? Wave your hand over a scanner and presto, you've paid. Makes you think, huh?

I think it is much more allegorical and gematric than a real physical device. Aleister Crowley also found that somehow his name added up to 666, and he assumed the magical name To Mega Therion, The Great Beast.
He officiated the ushering in of the new aeon of individual freedom, Thelema, under that name. We still treat documents from The Beast 666 as more officious that those from Crowley under his own name.

It is also the sum of the numbers on a Roulette table, 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + ... + 36 = 666.
Makes you wonder a bit, doesn't it.
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

I dunno - it works for other species.

If we cull and eat politicians, it could (in theory) boost their numbers!
(Or render them extinct, but that's a risk I'm prepared to take)

Well, under this scheme there are more available to eat, so that brings the price down.
And it boosts the economy as well!
