You can't use Pi in a calculation so you have to use an approximate value, and the approximate value you choose is also potentially divisible by any other rational number, right? So Pi is not divisible but 3.14159 is.

Hey I didn't say Pi is divisible by Pi. I said Pi divided by pi is 1.
You could use Pi in a calculation:
'Find the relationship between two circle diameters with radii of 1 and 2'.
D = 2 x pi x r
D1/D2 = 2 x pi x 1/ 2 x pi x 2 = 1/2
No estimate needed......

But your using Pi as a variable/symbol not a actual number. Gee I love aglebra.
That's not what I would call a calculation. A calculation is something like: Calculate the area of a circle with radius 101cm. You can't do that without an approximate value for Pi.
Advantage Mr C. :D
Eggs aren't circular in any event....
But of course you're correct
