I… did not expect a rational number with 108 digits in its reduced denominator to occur as the answer to the fairly natural question “what is the area of the Pythagoras tree fractal?”. https://penteract.github.io/pythagTree.html 😲

Screenshot of the start of the linked page, titled “the area of the Pythagoras tree”, which gives the value of the area as a rational number whose reduced numerator is approximately 1.282×10^109 and denominator approximately 8.775×10^107 (for a ratio of approximately 14.613).
