What is the value of pi?

Understand the Problem

The question is asking for the value of pi, which is a mathematical constant representing the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter. Its approximate value is 3.14.

More Information

Pi is an irrational number, meaning its decimal representation is infinite and does not repeat. Common approximations of pi include 3.14 or 22/7, but it extends infinitely beyond these values.

Tips

A common mistake is to use 3.14 as the exact value of pi. Remember that it is an approximation.
