    Since the time is 6 minutes, I will take a 1 BHK flat.
    The height (till ceiling) is 10 ft or around 3 m
    The depth of the flat is 15 ft or around 5 m
    The length of the flat is 15 ft or 5 m (Yes, I live in a square-ish flat)

    The volume is 75 cubic metres
    I take a ball which has a diameter of 8 cm. Its volume is 1/6*pi*(diameter to the power 3)
    512*(10 to the power-6)/2 = 256*(10 to the power-6) cubic meters

    Number of balls (approx)= 10 to the power 6 divided by 3 = 333000
