Pattern 34

Pattern Statement:

The number of letters multiplied by the product of the letters divided by the number of words multiplied by the product of the words, ignoring exponent, equals pi to five significant digits.

Why this pattern matters

This pattern combines several quantities from Genesis 1:1 into a single numerical expression. It is included because the resulting value matches a well-known mathematical constant to five significant digits.

How this pattern is measured

Use the total number of letters, the total number of words, and the products derived from the highlighted word values and word totals. Form the stated ratio and ignore the exponent when expressing the result.

Result for Genesis 1:1

3.1416
