Geocache Description:


This cache is not at the given coordinates. You will have to solve the puzzle below to obtain the final coordinates of the cache.





It's Pi Day! - 3/14/16 => 3.1416 !! Pi actually has an infinite number of digits, but 3.1416 is pretty close.

So here is an easy puzzle cache to log on Pi Day. You just need to do some arithmetic to reveal the final coordinates of the cache.

You start with this 15-digit number: 430111069790867

The final cache coordinates are concealed in this number. You just have to multiply it by another 15 digit number to reveal them.

It is pretty easy to guess what 15 digits to use.

Be careful if you use a computer to do the arithmetic - it may not give you the answer you need.
