Jupiter has a radius of 71492 KM. The volume of a sphere (Jupiter isn't perfectly spherical, but neither is Earth) is (1.3333*pi*r^3) which is (to an appropriate level of precision) 1,530,367,760,220,138 cubic KM.

Earth is 6378 KM in radius, so the volume is 1,086,618,294,482 cubic KM.

(pant, pant, pant...)

(I'm glad I have computers to do this part!)

So 1,530,367,760,220,138 divided by 1,086,618,294,482 = 1,408.3 Earths would fit inside the volume of Jupiter.

HOWEVER.....

Earth is a rocky planet, with a density of 5.52, while Jupiter is a gas giant with a density of 1.33. That means that while Jupiter has 1,400 times the volume of Earth, it has "only!" 318.25 times the mass.
