#### I had some troubles with the sphere calculations. I will submit a question after some practice, but an insight to how to go about estimating the number of spheres inside a larger sphere would be appreciated. #### "

You could imagine that the larger sphere is a bowling ball with a mass of 16 pounds. Then imagine a sphere the size of the smaller sphere, and try to estimate its weight.
If you can make a reasonable estimate the ratio of the diameters, then cubing that ratio will give you an acceptable estimate of the ratio of the volumes.
Of course your diameter estimate is likely to be off somewhat, and cubing that result will magnify the error. However the program takes account of that.
