Monday for Math Lovers – Trillions and Trillions

Posted on December 9, 2013 by Meg

The digits of Pi have been calculated to the 10 Trillionth digit, and beyond.  To get an idea of how many digits that is, just imagine every snowflake you see in a storm as a digit of Pi.  Every flake you see, for 10 miles, while it snows 5 inches.  That’s a lot of flakes.
