You need to approxiamte using only the following operations on Integers :
Addition
Subtraction
Multiplication
Division
Exponentiation
Logarithm
Factorial
Some of which I found :
Hope if you can find more accurate using least operations and numbers possible!

I found an another one
929808.1+(1−310−3)2

Nice!
Woah! That second one is awesome!
I assume you are not looking for trivial approximations (such as 1000000000031415926535)
:)
Similar to your second one, but not as precise:
962562+29809

Awesome !
A longer one:
1528658145−331
a shorter one: 5306+2545
331 is 99.993% accurate and its so simple
113355 is 99.999992% accurate

What about 670148725921053343141≈3.14159265358979323846238174277486 it's accurate till 21 digits after the decimal point.

Hell no, this is the most accurate

That's why I wanted approximations other than those.
That’s correct to twenty two places, mind blown

this calculator and then can get digits of pi from here
You can divide it usingThen you can check yourself...

I am complying with the least operations and numbers rule more(I believe when they make problems involving π, rather than having to factor out 7, 113 should also be used, atleast occasionally)
ln(23.14+1000ln2) is 99.9999993% accurate

Nice! Check out the one by Wasi Husain which is so near pi my calculator says it equals pi :)
This is not good enough though :)
That one has accuracy 99.99999999999995%<x<100% as my calculator rounds the solution to the 13th place after the decimal point :)

The last digit is not 5 it’s 4
Not exactly the simplest, but it doesn't use any radicals. It's actually based off of the traditional approximation of π, that being 722:
7002+(8175×10−4)−10−622000
Why not everyone include the accuracy with their approximation
Log in to reply
Calculated as π(approximation)×100 and only the first digit where the deviation happens should be included, if it goes over pi then subtract it from 200 and give
Because everyone can find it whenever they wanted :)
well number of digits accuracy is more better I think

Then put accuracy or the number of digits?

3 is 95% accurate
Not so close : π≈−W−1(−e1111−1−20)−20+1111−1 Where Wk(z) is the Lambert W function (Not following the rules)
π≈163ln(6403203+744)
π≈163ln(6403203+744−6403203+744196884)
π≈57.025
