Answer:

π ≈ 3.14

Explanation:

The distance around a circle is also called the circumference and can be found using the following expression:

C = dπ, where 'd' is equal to the diameter, or distance across the circle

Since 'd' is the distance across a circle, the resulf of dividing the circumference by the distance across is:


(d\pi )/(d)=\pi

Pi (π) is a non-terminating, non-repeating decimal that goes on and on and one. It is often estimated to the value of 3.14.
