$50$ moons can fit inside Earth.

Volume of Earth is $1.09xx10^12$ cubic kilometers

Volume of Moon is $2.18xx10^10$ cubic kilometers

Hence number of Moons that can fit in Earth is

$(1.09xx10^12)/(2.18xx10^10$

= $10^(12-10)/2$ $" "$ as $" "2.18=1.09xx2$

= $10^2/2$

= $100/2=50$

The volume of the Moon is about 2.18 xx 10^102.18 xx 10^10 cubic kilometers. The volume of Earth is about 1.09 xx 10^121.09 xx 10^12 cubic kilometers. About how many Moons can fit inside Earth?
