Any student in an advanced math class should be able to tell you that the measurement for pi is 3.14 (and change). According to Wikipedia, pi is “Originally defined as the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter, it now has various equivalent definitions and appears in many formulas in all areas of mathematics and physics.” Pi is the English pronunciation of the Greek letter “π” is to represent the constant ratio of the circumference.

Naturally, since 3.14 is the mathematical figure of pi, it makes sense that March 14, or 3/14, would be designated as Pi Day. Recognizing this officially started in 1988 when Larry Shaw pointed it out to the world at large.

Pi Day is celebrated all over the world and online. Some places celebrate Pi Day by giving a 3.14% discount. Others offer pie at 3:14 pm. One of the most common contests on Pi Day is seeing who can rattle off the most precise measure of pi. (The BBC reported that the most accurate version has at least 2 quadrillion digits. That’s 15 zeros!) “A guy named Rajveer memorized 70,000 decimal places and so that he could keep his record he put on a blindfold during the contest.”-https://www.piday.org/pi-facts/

Pi Day is a day to celebrate and “honor mathematics, the constant of Pi and of course to eat lots of pie,” according to Pi Day – History. Pi Day is a day to celebrate many traditions, like playing number games and so much more.

Pi Day numbers are a way to stress out a computer for a test. It is supposed that the Pi numbers don’t stop and that they go onto infinity. It is a part of Egyptian mythology and many archaeologists believe that the pyramids of Giza were built with the beginning of the pi decimals.
