is it each balloon holds 265 CUBIC millimeters?
ok, I assume each balloon holds 265 cubic millimeters
the volume of a cube is V=s^3
our cube has 1 meter sides so V=1^3=1 cubic meter
now there are 1*10^9 cubic millimeters in a cubic meter so there are
1*10^9 / 265 cubic millimeters =
3.77 * 10^6 balloons are filled
