Given:

A hollow sphere has an outer radius of 6 cm and inner radius of 3 cm. 

Outer radius (R) = 6 cm

Inner radius (r) = 3 cm

Formula:

Volume of the hollow sphere

⇒ V = \(4\over3\) ×  π × (R- r3)

Calculation:

\(4\over3\) × π × (63- 33)

\(4\over3 \) × p  × (216 - 27) 

⇒​​\(4\over3\) × ​p  × (189)

⇒ 252 p ​ cm3

∴ The volume of the given hollow sphere is 252 p cm3.

Confusion Points (π = p) As per the Official Question paper given in exam.
