7️⃣ Take the number 7: six combinations can get you there (1+6, 2+5, 3+4, etc.). That’s 6 out of 36—about a 16.7% chance. No wonder it feels so common.

Rajveer Meena of India, recited the first 70,000 decimal places of π in 2015?

In 2021, π was calculated to over 62.8 trillion decimal places by computers.

The earliest known calculation of π is dated to ancient Egypt ~1650 BCE!

Y’all look radian today 😻

If you eat too much π you end up with a big circumference.

If you tell me 3.14% of sailors are 🏴‍☠️ I would respond thar you are being irrational and I don’t want to repeat myself.

The close-up image reveals a meticulously crafted white ceramic mug, its smooth surface softly reflecting light like a canvas for the rich, dark coffee that fills it to the brim. The mug exudes a captivating aroma, a subtle yet powerful promise of warmth and comfort. Adorning its exterior is the Greek letter Pi (π), not merely printed but intricately textured. This design embodies a tactile representation of Pi's decimal expansion—a mesmerising, infinite sequence that spirals into complexity—shades of grey weave through this artistic portrayal, evoking the mathematical narrative's depth and richness. Imagine the sensation of your fingertips gliding over the raised ridges, each contour embodying the very essence of this celebrated number.


Above the mug, a bold, eye-catching banner proclaims "Happy π Day!" in vibrant, celebratory letters, marking a joyful occasion dedicated to appreciating mathematics and its profound impact on our lives. Wisps of steam rise gracefully from the coffee's surface, creating an ethereal atmosphere that encapsulates a serene moment of reflection and enjoyment. 


Below, the mug rests on a speckled kitchen countertop, a blend of earthy tones that complements the mug's elegance. This setting perfectly frames the ritual of savouring coffee, where the tranquillity of the ordinary merges effortlessly with the extraordinary allure of mathematical wonder.

Fun fact! 2025 is a square year (45×45=2025).

The last one was 1936, and the next one won't be until 2116.

Next year will be 2025, which is the sum of the cubes of 1 to 9! 🤯

Here's the math:
1³ + 2³ + 3³ + 4³ + 5³ + 6³ + 7³ + 8³ + 9³ = 2025

What a magical number! 🎉

1000000000000066600000000000001 is a prime, a palindrome, and named after a prince of Hell, Belphegor, due to the 666 in the middle and 13 zeros on either side. Fun sidenote, it's represented with the symbol for Pi - but upside down.

The shape of St. Louis' Gateway Arch is an inverted catenary curve.

It's also precisely as tall as it is wide 192m (630ft), weighs 15,645 metric tons (17,246 us tons), and even though it's designed to be able to sway 45cm (18in) it takes a 80kmh (50mph) wind to move the top 3.8cm (1.5in).

#MathFacts The 340th day of the year;

340 can also be written as the sum of consecutive primes in three different ways.

340! +1 is prime. There are only thirteen day numbers of the year for which n! +1 is prime, and 340 is the last of these.

Jim Wilder@wilderlab pointed out that 340 = 4^1 + 4*2 + 4* + 4^4. Just think, tomorrow will be even a longer string of consecutive powers of four!

#MathFacts The 339th day of the year; the plane can be divided into 339 regions with 13 hyperbolae.

There are also 339 possible 2x2 matrices with integer entries between zero and 13.

I just discovered the term emirprimes (semiprime reversed) for numbers like 339 and 933 which are semiprimes that are reversals of each other. 339 = 3 x 113 and 933 is 311 x 3, even the factors are reversals of each other.
