How to compute the number of regular spheres needed to fill a rectangular space

Computing the volume of a sphere is straightforward 4/3piR^3

As is the volume of a rectangular space lengthwidthheight (e.g. 10106)

How might I go about determining how many spheres would fit into a rectangular space, assuming the spheres are solid and not flexible?
