Detailed Solution

If π = c/d = 22/7, which equals 3.142… which is a non-terminating non-repeating decimal.
Therefore, π is irrational.
 When we measure a value with a scale, we only get an approximate value. We will never get the exact value.
Therefore, we may not be aware of whether c or d is irrational.
The value of π is almost equal to 22/7 or 3.142857…
This solved the contradiction of the value of π to the day Question Image.
So, option 4 is correct.
