No one created pi. It is a natural value - the ratio of circumference of a circle to it's diameter. By subdividing a cicle into ever decreasing sectors and calculating the dimensions using pythagarus theorem a better and better approximation of the value of pi can be arrived at. The exact value of pi has not yet been calculated (possibly does not exist). All we have (made available by very very accurate computers) is a better and better approximation.

What would you predict about the reaction to create ATP using ADP and Pi as reactants?

The reaction to create ATP using ADP and Pi as reactants is likely to be favorable and proceed in the direction of ATP formation. This is because the conversion of ADP and Pi into ATP is an essential process in cells to store and release energy for various cellular activities.


Did James Steven create Pi?

No, Pi was discovered, not created. Albert Einstein started the idea of Pi, where you multiply 3.14 with the diameter of a circle to get the circle's circumference, and where you multiply 3.14 squared with a circle's radius to get the circle's area, etc.

You are probably thinking about Rahmanujan. However, he didn't really "create pi" - God created pi. Nor did he discover it, pi was known well before Rahmanujan. What he did do was to find some very efficient formulae to calculate pi to many decimal places - formulae that are still used today.
