I was wondering if anyone here knows the equation for trying to slove pie, and also how long of an answer do you got.

Pi (no E) is an irrational number so there is no solution. It is something to the effect of 3.1415 but mathematicians have carried it out to over 1 million decimal places with no repititions or endings.

"Pi is a name given to the ratio of the circumference of a circle to the diameter. That means, for any circle, you can divide the circumference (the distance around the circle) by the diameter and always get exactly the same number. It doesn't matter how big or small the circle is, Pi remains the same. Pi is often written using the symbol and is pronounced "pie", just like the dessert.

"A Brief History of Pi
Ancient civilizations knew that there was a fixed ratio of circumference to diameter that was approximately equal to three. The Greeks refined the process and Archimedes is credited with the first theoretical calculation of Pi.

"In 1761 Lambert proved that Pi was irrational, that is, that it can't be written as a ratio of integer numbers.

"In 1882 Lindeman proved that Pi was transcendental, that is, that Pi is not the root of any algebraic equation with rational coefficients. This discovery proved that you can't "square a circle", which was a problem that occupied many mathematicians up to that time.

"How many digits are there? Does it ever end?

"Because Pi is known to be an irrational number it means that the digits never end or repeat in any known way. But calculating the digits of Pi has proven to be an fascination for mathematicians throughout history. Some spent their lives calculating the digits of Pi, but until computers, less than 1,000 digits had been calculated. In 1949, a computer calculated 2,000 digits and the race was on. Millions of digits have been calculated, with the record held (as of September 1999) by a supercomputer at the University of Tokyo that calculated 206,158,430,000 digits. (first 1,000 digits)

"Approximation of Pi
Archimedes calculated that Pi was between 3 10/71 and 3 1/7 (also written 223/71 < < 22/7 ). 22/7 is still a good approximation

Formulas of pie,

Vieta's Formula

2/PI = 2/2 * ( 2 + 2 )/2 * (2 + ( ( 2 + 2) ) )/2 * ...c

Leibnitz's Formula

PI/4 = 1/1 - 1/3 + 1/5 - 1/7 + ...

Wallis Product

PI/2 = 2/1 * 2/3 * 4/3 * 4/5 * 6/5 * 6/7 * ...
2/PI = (1 - 1/22)(1 - 1/42)(1 - 1/62)...

Lord Brouncker's Formula

4/PI = 1 + 1
----------------
2 + 32
------------
2 + 52
---------
2 + 72 ...

(PI2)/8 = 1/12 + 1/32 + 1/52 + ...

(PI2)/24 = 1/22 + 1/42 + 1/62 + ...

Euler's Formula


(PI2)/6 = (n = 1..) 1/n2 = 1/12 + 1/22 + 1/32 + ...
(or more generally...)


(n = 1..) 1/n(2k) = (-1)(k-1) PI(2k) 2(2k) B(2k) / ( 2(2k)!)
B(k) = the k th Bernoulli number. eg. B0=1 B1=-1/2 B2=1/6 B4=-1/30 B6=1/42 B8=-1/30 B10=5/66. Further Bernoulli numbers are defined as (n 0)B0 + (n 1)B1 + (n 2)B2 + ... + (n (n-1))B(N-1) = 0 assuming all odd Bernoulli #'s > 1 are = 0. (n k) = binomial coefficient = n!/(k!(n-k)!)"

But it is a trick question. There is no absolute Pi.

Pi - is a non-repeating decimal - it goes to as many "places" as you have space for on the calculator (and continues)
pi is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. No matter what size the circle, the ratio is the same. That makes it a constant. The scientists and mathematicians years ago labeled it Pi.
Pi is a Greek letter having nothing to do with food (pie).

you can do (1x1x3x3x5x5x7x7....) divided by (2x2x4x4x6x6x8x8...), or a bunch of other methods. But the estimate (note it's only an estimate; if it was the actual, the Pi wouldn't be an irrational number!!!) is 22 divided by 7. But the easiest way to figure it out is to hit the Pi button on your calculator....!!! :) Smile! :)

Do you mean pi? Because pi has almost infinite digits, and I don't think anyone's got the calculation right, but try this link, it seems to have all the answers!

And here's a link where you can get a hold of all the digits of pi:

Asking for the solution to pi is like asking for the solution to the Theory of Relativity. The question doesn't make sense.
