International Mathematics Day

International Mathematics Day

The International Day of Mathematics is 14 March. It is also known as the Pi Day, because the mathematical constant π can be rounded down to 3.14. UNESCO's 40th General Conference decided Pi Day as the International Day of Mathematics in November 2019.

આંતરરાષ્ટ્રીય ગણિત દિવસ 14 માર્ચ છે. તેને Pi દિવસ તરીકે પણ ઓળખવામાં આવે છે, કારણ કે ગાણિતિક સ્થિરાંક π ને 3.14 સુધી ગોળાકાર કરી શકાય છે. યુનેસ્કોની 40મી જનરલ કોન્ફરન્સે નવેમ્બર 2019 માં ગણિતના આંતરરાષ્ટ્રીય દિવસ તરીકે પાઇ દિવસને નકકી કર્યો.

INTERNATIONAL DAY OF MATHEMATICS

The International Day of Mathematics (IDM) is a worldwide celebration. Each year on March 14 all countries will be invited to participate through activities for both students and the general public in schools, museums, libraries and other spaces.

March 14 was chosen as the date for the IDM because it was already celebrated in many countries as Pi Day, based on the fact that some countries write it as 3/14 and the mathematical constant Pi is approximately 3.14.

The International Day of Mathematics project is led by the International Mathematical Union with the support of numerous international and regional organizations from all over the world. It was proclamated by UNESCO on the 40th session of the General Conference, November 26, 2019. The first celebration was held on March 14, 2020.
