if you write out pi to two decimal places

2
If you write out pi to two decimal places, backwards it spells “pie”. The spiral shapes of sunflowers follow a Fibonacci sequence. That’s where you add the two preceding numbers in the sequence to give you the next one. So it starts 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, etc. The Fibonacci sequence shows up in nature a fair bit.

If you write out pi to twodecimal places, backwards it spells pie.The spiral shapesof sunfowersfollow a Fibonaccisequence.Thats where you add the twopreceding numbers in thesequence to give you thenext one. So it starts 1, 1, 2,3, 5, 8, 13, 21, etc. TheFibonacci sequence showsup in nature a fair bit.A pia that has radius and hei!ht a has "olume #i $$$ a.Because the area of a circle is Pi multiplied by the radius squared (which can be written out as Pi z z). Then you multiply by the height to get the total volume.%&' seconds is e(actly )weeks.weeks.10! means 10 factorial. 10! = 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 = 3628800seconds. Which is 42 days, or 6 weeks,exactly.*ero is the only numberthat can+t be representedin ,oman numerals.
