3, but to 3 decimals it's 3.145

2.35 is closest to 2 on the number line
-- Multiply (pi) by (diameter of circle)OR-- Multiply (pi) by (2 times radius of circle)-- Then round the product to the nearest whole number.
To the nearest whole number 1.049 is simply 1. 1 is the closest whole number less than 1.049 and 2 is the closest whole number more than 1.049. It's pretty obvious that it's much, much closer to 1 than to 2.
If you multiply or divide an irrational number - such as pi - by ANY rational number (except zero), you will ALWAYS get an irrational number.
A=(pi)r^2. If m=whole number, then A=(pi)(mr)^2 = (pi)m^2r^2 and the area will change as the square of m.

Pi is not a natural number. Natural numbers are just the regular set of numbers used for counting (1, 2, 3, 4, ...). Pi, being not even a whole number, is not natural.
Its radius is: 1298/2*pi = 207 meters to nearest whole number

'pi' is not a 'surd' because it is not a 'square root' of any number. 'pi' is an IRRATIONAL number. Irrational numbers are those were the decimals go to infinity AND the decinal digits are not in any regular order. pi = 3.141592654.... (recur to infinity and no regular order0. 'pi' in surd form is sqrt(pi) = sqrt(3.141592654....) = 1.772453851..... (which is also irrational). In school/college etc., you are given 'pi = 3.14 , 3.1416 , 22/7' Tese are only APPROXIMATIONS for ease of calculating. 'Super Dupa' computers have calculated 'pi' to at least 50 billion places and still going. NB A decimal number such as 1.33333.... is NOT irrational. It is RATIONAL , because it can be converted to a ration/quotient/fraction. Irrational numbers cannot be converted to an exact value 'ratio/quotient/fraction'. Notice the decimal digits are in a regular order of '3'....
Pi is an indiscriminated boolean hypothinator, so it cannot be given a truely incomponential denominator. Therefore, as 1/2 = 2/4, Pi = 7/62626Pi That is pure gobbledygook. Since the questioner speaks of approximations, I presume (s)he knows pi is irrational. There is no closest fraction to an irrational number. No matter what fraction you pick, there is a closer one. Fractional approximations to pi are usually (not always) given as a decimal, so what makes sense to ask is what is the closest approximation to pi to a given number of decimals (digits after the decimal point). For example, the closest approximation to pi to 4 decimals is 3.1416.
29 is a prime number and cannot be divided by any whole number that is less than it, except for 1. 14.5 is the closest I could find to a whole number, with the answer being 2.
