How many earths can fit in the moon?
Lots of articles say you can fit 49 or 30 whatever moons in earth but this is not true because the moon is 24.2% the size of earth so about 4 moons. Lots of science shows like the universe on history channel say 4 moons can fit in earth. But the Earth is much denser so about 45 moons would equal the mass of the earth. EDIT: The diameter of the moon is approximately 24.2% the diameter of Earth, but this does not necessarily mean that the volumes are in this ratio. Therefore, you cannot conclude that there are about 4 moons. If no volume was left unused, approximately 49 moons could fit into the Earth (this is not possible in reality as there would have to be empty space to be able to fit the moons into the Earth. So the actual amount of moons that could fit into the Earth is going to be a little less than 49 moons (36 according to some sources).

If you were on the moons near side during a new moon how much of the side of earths facing you would be sunlight?
As Earth rotates, the side of Earth that facing the Sun spends more time in daylight, while the opposite is true for the other side.

Do you see both sides of the moon?
For the most part yes. This is because the Moon rotates on its axis in the same time as it takes to make one orbit of Earth. This means that the same face of the Moon is always facing the Earth We should therefore only be able to see 50% of the Moons surface, however, the Moon wobbles as bit as it orbits the earth (a feature called libration - see the link I will place below) and this allows us to see round the sides of the moon for a little bit, giving us a view of 59% of its surface.
