"... a pig without pi is ... gravity... no...
a pig without pi is... heavy?...
Oh..."
My friend still doesn't get it...
Mine doesn't get it either and, uh... it's soooooo easy and obvious that I don't know how to explain. Yeah.
"A pig without 3.14 is 9.8"
3.14 = first few digits of π (pi)
"pig" without "pi" is "g" (not math, just letters)
g = term for acceleration due to gravity (on Earth) = 9.81 m/s²
Thank you for that. It finally clicked.
Pi is about 3.14 and the acceleration for gravity (g) is 9.8. So a pig without 3.14 (pi), is 9.8 (g).
