Answer:

Pi is the sixteenth letter of the Greek alphabet ( Π, π ), transliterated as ‘p.’

The circumference of a circle is found with the formula C= π*d = 2*π*r. Thus pi equals a circle's circumference divided by its diameter. Plug your numbers into a calculator: the result should be roughly 3.14.


Hope this helps!
