Quite possibly the answer obtained by Alexander J Lee and Shigeru Kondo in October 2011. See link.
However, it is highly unlikely that you will be able to use it in any computer you can lay your hands on. Furthermore, it is claimed that the error in pi to 40 digits is smaller than the width of a hydrogen atom at the far end of the known universe. For most purposes that degree of accuracy is overkill!
Think of pi as infinity. It never ends. You might mean "3.14" as an approximation of pi, though.
That depends on how precise you want the approximation.
22/7=3.14286 Which is a fair approximation to Pi, but 355/113 =3.14159 and is a much better approximation.

That is an approximation of the number pi.
3.141 is fairly close to pi, the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. 3.142 is a closer approximation.

3.14 is the commonly used approximation

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.

It is: 22/7
That is an approximation of the number pi.
For plotting, you can use an approximation. Pi, which is approximately 3.14, is between 3 and 4, but closer to 3. If, for example, integers are 10 millimeters apart, then pi would be about 1 1/2 millimeters to the right of the number 3.
Yes. That's a decimal approximation of 1 over pi.
Pi, although it is only an approximation
