Solution

The correct option is D

355/113


π = 3.141592653……..

227 = 3.142857 (Accurate to 2 decimal places)

15750 = 3.14 (Accurate to 2 decimal places)

165 = 3.2 (Not accurate at all!)

355113 = 3.141592920 (Accurate to 6 decimal places)

So, 355113 most accurate approximation of π. It is not used in calculations because it would make the calculations complex. We, at this level, assume π to be equal to 227.
