Detailed Solution

Approximately 1331 piles of earth can be accommodated in Jupiter.
It is given that the radius of Jupiter is 11 times the radius of the earth. Thus we can compare the volume of the Earth with the volume of Jupiter. Considering both planets are in sphere shape.
We know that volume of the sphere of radius, r is 43πr3....................(a)
From (a), the volume of the Earth is
 VE=43π(RE)3.................(i)
RE=Radius of the Earth.
From (a), the volume of Jupiter is
VJ=43π(RJ)3.............(ii)
RJ=Radius of Jupiter.
Radius of Jupiter is 11 times the radius of the earth
So RJ=11RE.............(iii)
Substituting the RJ from (iii) in (ii) we get
    VJ=43π(11RE)3
VJ=43π×1331×(RE)3
VJ=1331(43π(RE)3)..............(iv)
 Now dividing (iv) with (i)
         VJVE=1331(43π(RE)3)43π(RE)3
     VJVE=13311
VJ:VE=1331:1
Hence the 1331 piles of Earth can be accommodated in Jupiter if the radius of Jupiter is 11 times the radius of the Earth.
