Different people found better and better approximations. The exact value can only be expressed as the symbol for pi; it has been proven that pi is irrational, in other words, you can't write it exactly as a fraction with integers in the numerator and the denominator. Therefore, you might say that nobody found the exact value of pi, and nobody ever will.

Why is a fraction of pi better then the decimal of pi?

Since pi is an irrational number it is impossible to represent the exact quantity as a decimal; you can only give and approximate value. However, if you write a fraction that includes the symbol for pi, you are giving an exact quantity.

What is the area of circle with a radius of 1.2cm?

Area = (pi * radius)^2, so: Area = (pi * 1.2cm)^2 Area = 1.44 pi cm (an exact value) If you want to approximate the area, just multiply 1.44 by pi.

What is the approximate circumference of a circle with a radius of 30 inches?

The exact answer is 2*30*pi = 60*pi Using 3.14 as an approx value for pi, the approx circumference would be 3.14*60 = 188.4 inches


How many digits does pi divided out to?

So far no one has found the end of pi. Many people round it to 3.14. Because pi does not have an end (that we know of) any answer using pi is only approximate.
