Remi has two cone-shaped containers with the same diameter. He will place the smaller container inside the larger one. Before he does this, he wants to fill the larger container with water so that it will be completely full but won’t spill when he places the smaller container inside. The diameter of both containers is 12 cm. The height of the smaller container is 6 cm, and the height of the larger container is 18 cm.

What volume of water must Remi put in the large container?
Use 3.14 to approximate pi and express your final answer in hundredths.
