Best Answer

IRRATIONAL decimals , such as 'pi' cannot be made 'equal' to a fraction.

pi = 3.141592....

For school work , when using pi = 3.14, 3.1416, 22/7 these are only APPROXIMATIONS not equalities.

NB THe square roots of prime numbers are also irrational, such as Sqrt(2) , sqrt(3), sqrt(5) et.seq. and cannot be made into equal fractions.
