The mathematical flex nobody asked for but everyone secretly appreciates! Dividing 22 by 7 gives you 3.142857143, which is remarkably close to π (3.14159...). This fraction has been the go-to approximation for centuries when you need a quick π calculation without a calculator. It's accurate to about 0.04% - not enough precision to build a spacecraft, but definitely enough to calculate how much pizza you need for game night. Engineers are nodding in approval while mathematicians are twitching slightly.
