Given

How many unit cubes can fit into a sphere with a volume of 9 m3?

Procedure

The volume of a unit cube is equal to 1 m3 because all its sides are equal to 1m.

Let us now calculate the radius of the sphere.


\begin{gathered} (4)/(3)\pi\cdot r^3=9 \\ r=1.29\text{ m} \end{gathered}

With this information, we can deduce that only 4 cubic units.
