That's because the calculator interprets it as ## \frac{3}{2}\pi##, ## \frac{3\pi}{2}##, or ##\frac{3}{2}(\frac{\pi}{1}) ## as opposed to ## \frac{3}{2\pi}##. Next time, enter it into the calculator as 3/(2## \pi##)

I would give it somewhere between three to four stars. I did think the movie served its purpose well, but I had a few issues with it that slightly ruined it for me. My five big issues:

My best guess is that they'll make her CGI like they did with Tarkin in Rogue One or do what Star Trek did when Leonard Nimoy died; they were open that he died but they worked that in the story.

That was a good article that I thought was mostly relevant to me. I do read textbooks on my own and some of the points are relevant to me; points one and five weren't as relevant to me. I understand the feeling of it being easier to read a fiction book than a math book. I don't read 1 thousand...

I was thinking that it was. Is it more appropriate to call it a subtitle rather than a first sentence?

The BBC has reported on a supposed nuclear-powered airliner that would fly three times the speed of sound. http://www.bbc.com/future/story/20160713-could-this-be-the-first-nuclear-powered-airliner From the article: The first sentence of this article already makes me skeptical. It runs on...
