    Hi Everyone!

    Just wondering if you use pie in the exam as 3.14 or 3.142?

    Thanks:)

    I use 3.14, my teacher says to use it too :)

    Or 22/7 or just use the pie button. It tells you in the question

    We get pie in maths? What? :eek:

    Ooh you mean pi? Yeah I use 22/7 or the pi button.

    22/7, 3.14 or just the pi symbol. If it doesn't specify in the question use 22/7.

    you should maybe use the pi button.. most questions should tell ye what to use anyways... 22/7 3.14159 or whatever they specify

    22/7 is more accurate though, I use that

    Talk about misleading title :rolleyes:

    If the question doesn't specify, use the button on the calculator then round up as required.

    Use pi button unless they state otherwise in the question.

    It usually doesn't make a difference, but if it does, giving you an answer of 3.999 instead of 4.00001 for example, you will be penalised for a blunder.
