  Base π: π=1

    Writing the same number a different way does not make it rational. There are no two natural numbers p and q so that p/q = 1 base pi.

    Even in base π, π is still considered an irrational number; using an irrational based doesn’t change the fundamental identity of whole numbers or irrational numbers, it just changes the way we write them.

    1 is always 1. It’s $1 × b^0$ where b is the base.

    10 is the base. $1 × b^1 + 0 × b^0$

    That doesn’t make it rational but simply makes it writable in 2 digits(10)

    π = 10

    in base 10, 10 = 10.
