The value of 22/7 was given even before the world knew what it is . Aryabhtta, famous mathematician, astronomer and physicist gave this value in his book Aryabhattiya.
Aryabhata worked on the approximation for pi (), and concluded that is irrational. In the second part of the Aryabhatiyam (gaitapda 10), he writes:
caturadhikam atamaaguam dvaistath sahasrmayutadvayavikambhasysanno vttapariha."Add four to 100, multiply by eight, and then add 62,000. By this rule the circumference of a circle with a diameter of 20,000 can be approached."[10]
This implies that the ratio of the circumference to the diameter is ((4 + 100) 8 + 62000)/20000 = 62832/20000 = 3.1416, which is accurate to five significant figures.
Aryabhata used the word sanna (approaching), to mean that not only is this an approximation but that the value is incommensurable / irrational. This is quite a sophisticated insight, because the irrationality of pi was proved in Europe only in 1761 by Lambert
I sincerely request the experts to acknowledge the contributions of Indians while answering the questions.

Hi Ambika,
After your BA which is just a graduate degree, the chances to a good job is less, hence I would suggest you to go for higher education on the basis of your interest i.e. if you want to continue in English then opt for M.A, B.ed, M.Ed in Hindi or if you want to change your field, then opt for the MBA if you are inclined towards Management discipline as your career stream.
