      The closest rational fraction I can get to \(π\) other than 355/113 (~3.14159292) is 103993/33102 (~3.141592653). 🙂

      Very Interesting

        Wow, @RZ923, that's awesome! You are absolutely right. This is the closest next rational fraction that people can get.
        We can also get a similar approximation using the following: \(\frac{04348}{33215}=3.141592654,\) \(\frac{208341} {66317}=3.141592653,\) or \(\frac{312689}{99532}=3.141592654.\)

        Nevertheless, the number \(\frac{355}{113}\) is still very interesting. To read more about it, click here 🙂
