Yes, many people know what it represents; pi is the Greek symbol for the "circular constant", the ratio between the circumference and the diameter, which can be used to find the perimeters, areas, volumes and surface areas of many shapes given one or two particular measurements.

In math why does pi represent 3.14?

Pi does not represent 3.14. Pi represents the ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter. Pi is an irrational number. 3.14 is but the crudest approximation of pi. A better approximation is 3.1416. Still better is 3.14159. The closest approximation commonly used in real-world applilcations is 3.14159262. If anything, 3.14 represents pi, and represents it very imprecisely. As for why the term "pi" was chosen to represent this important concept in mathematics, it was chosen because it is the initial letter of the greek word for "perimeter".
