How do you simplify this, to get an overall volume in terms of pi:
1/3π x 486 – 1/3π x 18

486 = 18*27
=> 1/3π x 486 – 1/3π x 18
= 1/3π x 18 (27 – 1)
= 6 π x * 26
= 156 π

You can write that as 1/3pi (486 - 18) = 468/3 pi = 156 pi

Factor out 1/3pi and get 1/3pi(486-18) = 1/3pi(468) = 156pi

Those "thirds" are reducible to:
162Ï - 6Ï = 156Ï
