Assume that cells have a typical size of about 10 µm (1µm = 10-6 m) in all directions. And that we are the same density as water, and are made completely of cells (both exaggerations, of course, but fine for an order of magnitude estimate). Hints: What is the volume of a cell? What is the volume of a human? How can these quantities be related to give the number of cells in your body? The shape of the cell is not important in this rough estimate: for instance, the difference in volume fraction between say cubes and close packed spheres is only 26%.
