The approximate area of the circle lies between the areas of the circumscribed and the inscribed hexagons.
Archimedes made pi more precise
223/71 and 22/7
pi has been around for as long as we have had written records.Its approximate estimated value of Pi up to 5 decimal places is 3.14159 .Archimedes was the first person to estimate the correct value of pi
Archimedes
Archimedes of Syracuse is said to be the first mathematician to make a systematic attempt to estimate pi in the third century BC.

It is still being calculated. Supa-Dupa computers have calculated 'pi' to at least 50 billion places and still going. The ancients would have calculated 'pi' to at least 10 places. or more. estimates for pi are 3.14, 3.1416, 3.14159 or 22/7 They are all approximations. pi is an irrational number, which means it cannot be converted to a ratio/quotient. The Classical Greek mathematician , Archimedes, calculated 'pi' to a degrees of estimation.
