22 divided by 7 = 3.14285714...

However, it has been shown that this number is actually larger than pi which equals 3.14159265...

A more accurate approximation would be 355 divided by 113.

Note that are no two rational numbers which can be divided to give the exact value of Pi.

A possible method of calculating Pi would use the Madhava-Leibniz series:

Pi = (4/1) - (4/3) + (4/5) - (4/7) + (4/9) ...

Such a method is capable of calculating Pi to any number of digits (although it becomes quite impractical after a certain point)
