The only 'pie' in mathematics, is the graphical circle. Otherwise 'Pie' is the foodstuff that you eat, e.g., Apple Pie, Meat pie.
However, there is a 'pi' in mathematics; note the spelling.
'pi' in mathematics is the constant of direct proportion between a circle's circumference and its diameter.
'pi' in mathematics is an irrational number, which is 3.141592.... .
An irrational number is one were the decimals go to infinity and there is no regular order in the decimal digits.
In school when learning circle calculations, you are probably given ' pi = 3.14 ' or 'pi = 3.1416 . However these values are only approximations.
The algebraic equation for circles is
C = pid or C = 2pi*r .
Area of a circle is
A = pi *r^(2)
NB 'pi' is the small/lower case Classical Greek letter 'p' , and means 'proportion'.

What is pure math?
Pure Mathematics is the branch of mathematics that deals only with mathematics and how it works - it is the HOW of mathematics. It is abstracted from the real world and provides the "tool box" of mathematics; it includes things like calculus. Applied mathematics is the branch of mathematics which applies the techniques of Pure Mathematics to the real world - it is the WHERE of mathematics; it includes things like mechanics. Pure Mathematics teaches you HOW to integrate, Applied mathematics teaches you WHERE to use integration.
What does mathematics have to do with math?
