It is irrational and cant be expressed as a dividion of two intergers. It is somewhat accurately described as 3.14159 or 22/7 .

Pi is a very special number in math and it’s so special that it even gets its own symbol. Mathematicians found out that when you try to write down what pi is, the decimal points keep going and going. This means that it’s impossible to find all the digits of pi.

I will only write down some digits.

π = 3.1415926535897932384626
