What is Pi?
Pi (π) is a special number that helps us understand circles. It's the ratio of a circle's circumference (the distance around the circle) to its diameter (the distance across the circle through the center). No matter how big or small a circle is, if you divide its circumference by its diameter, you always get approximately 3.14!
