"Pi" is an irrational number. No series of digits can represent its value exactly, whether written as a fraction or as a decimal. The decimal can be extended to any number of significant figures, no matter how large, and never ends.
The greater the number of significant figures, the greater the precision. Each significant figure increases the precision by a factor of ten. For example pi = 3.14 is accurate to 3 significant figures, while pi = 3.14159 with 6 significant figures is a more accurate representation.
Circumference / pi = Diameter, radius = diameter / 2 So> 37 / pi = 11.777 diameter = 5.8885 radius * * * * * If you wish to give your answer to 5 significant figures, you MUST use the value of pi to at least that many sig figs. Thus, radius = 37/(2*3.1416) = 5.8887 - to 5 sig figs.
