... • Our conjecture is that the decimal expansion of p/q will terminate when q = 5x * 2y, where x and y are positive integers. Essentially, this means that the expansion will terminate if q is a multiple of 5 or 2, or a combination of multiples of 5 and 2. Any other value of q will cause the decimal ex ...

... work with the decimal form in your computations. In a decimal number, such as 0.357, the first digit to the right of the decimal point, which is 3 in this example, is the tenths digit (i.e. 1/10), the 5 is the 100ths digit (1/100), the 7 is the 1000ths digit (1/1000), etc. To convert a decimal to a ...

Approximations of π



Approximations for the mathematical constant pi (π) in the history of mathematics reached an accuracy within 0.04% of the true value before the beginning of the Common Era (Archimedes). In Chinese mathematics, this was improved to approximations correct to what corresponds to about seven decimal digits by the 5th century.Further progress was made only from the 15th century (Jamshīd al-Kāshī), and early modern mathematicians reached an accuracy of 35 digits by the 18th century (Ludolph van Ceulen), and 126 digits by the 19th century (Jurij Vega), surpassing the accuracy required for any conceivable application outside of pure mathematics.The record of manual approximation of π is held by William Shanks, who calculated 527 digits correctly in the years preceding 1873. Since the mid 20th century, approximation of π has been the task of electronic digital computers; the current record (as of May 2015) is at 13.3 trillion digits, calculated in October 2014.
