"I don't understand why 14/3 is Pi Day.…

Pi Day is March 14th (3/14), just as Pi is “3.14.” However, many non-U.S. countries represent dates by day-month, making this date 14/3. The date of 3/14 is “American Pi (Day).” Pi is often represented as 22/7 (the fraction), and this would be July 22nd (an International Pi Day).

“Pi Day is each March 14 (3.14), while Pi Approximation Day is July 22 (roughly equal to 22/7” was posted on Twitter by dege13 on March 2, 2009. “We don’t recognise today as PI day. It’s an American PI day because they follow mm/dd/yy. We celebrate it on 22/7 - 22nd July” was posted on Twitter by Swami Gulagulaananda on March 14, 2010. “UK Pi day is 22/7 - which is more accurate than American Pi day, which is just 3.14 ... but not as ammusingly named….” was posted on Twitter by Lucas R Black on March 14, 2010. “22/7 is Pi day 14/3 is American Pi day” was posted on Twitter by Porygon Seizure on March 13, 2020. “International Pi Day is 22/7, which is a better approximation than American Pi Day 😊” was posted on Twitter by MJW on March 16, 2021.

Wikipedia: Pi
The number π ( /paɪ/; spelled out as “pi” ) is a mathematical constant, approximately equal to 3.14159. It is defined in Euclidean geometry[a] as the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its diameter, and also has various equivalent definitions. It appears in many formulas in all areas of mathematics and physics.

In the United States, Pi Day falls on 14 March (written 3/14 in the US style), and is popular among students.

@amoolyatatti We don’t recognise today as PI day. It’s an American PI day because they follow mm/dd/yy. We celebrate it on 22/7 - 22nd July

UK Pi day is 22/7 - which is more accurate than American Pi day, which is just 3.14 ... but not as ammusingly named….

For those of you who are excited about American Pi day today, just a reminder that the 22nd July (22/7) is officially Pi day in Australia 😊

It’s not “pi day”, it’s “American pi day”. The rest of the world have to wait until 22/7 for “pi approximation day”.

Hey NZ, yesterday was 3/14 in America: Pi Day. Did you miss it? (Miss American Pi Day?) Don’t worry, we get Approximate Pi Day on 22/7.

I tend to think of 3/14 as American Pi day and 22/7 as European Pi Day.

International Pi Day is 22/7, which is a better approximation than American Pi Day 😊

I don’t understand why 14/3 is Pi Day.
Isn’t 22/7 a better choice?
