Pi is usually described as either a decimal or a fraction in as simple terms as possible. pi is simplified as 3.14 or 22/7. A "closer" answer to pi can be worked out to millions of places to the right of the decimal by computers, but it is academic, as no "absolute value" for pi can ever be reached. For practical purposes - even in precise fields such as engineering - a value for pi of 3.1417 is considered more than adequate.

What fraction is the closest to the actual value of pi?
One can define an infinite number of fractions to successively approximate pi, and get closer and closer to pi's value. There is no closest fraction to pi. No matter how close the fraction is to pi you can always find one that is closer.
What is the closer fraction near pi?
we can find rational numbers how much nearer to pi by constructing a number which has large repeating block as pi
How do you use 22 over 7?
Since (pi) is an irrational number and you can never write it down exactly, you need something that's close that you can use whenever you need to use (pi). The closer approximation you use in place of (pi), the closer your answer will be to the exact truth. 22/7 is a very handy number to use where you need (pi). It's easy to handle, and if you use 22/7, then your answer is only about 0.04% wrong, which is darn good accuracy.
Which fraction is closest to actual pi?
There is no such fraction. It is a transcendental number and so has a decimal representation that is infinite in length. So each additional decimal digit gives an equivalent fraction that is closer to pi than the previous one.Thus 31/10 = 3.1 is closer than 3314/100 = 3.14 is closer3141/1000 = 3.141 is closer stilland so on.There is no such fraction.

What is the largest amount of pi that you can think of?
If you mean the number pi, you can't have a "large amount of pi" or a "small amount of pi" - the number pi will always be the number pi (approximately 3.1416).
