Maurice is six.
He accomplished his feat just in time for Pi Day: Sunday, March 14 (3/14, get it?).
It all began when the family wanted to make a pie.
â âCause we were trying to find stovetop pie,â Maurice said.
âOur oven was busted,â explained his father, Phil Dickinson, âso we wanted to see whether we could make pie on the stovetop. We went looking on the internet and we came across the number pi.â
Pi, you may recall, is the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. If you divide the circumference of any circle by the diameter, you get pi, an infinite number that begins with 3.14 and ends whenever you get tired.
