\begin{aligned} & \mathrm{d}=\frac{\mathrm{Z} \times \mathrm{M}}{\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{A}} \mathrm{a}^3} \\ & \frac{\mathrm{d}_{\mathrm{FCC}}}{\mathrm{d}_{\mathrm{BCC}}}=\frac{\frac{4 \times \mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{w}}}{\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{A}} \times(2)^3}}{\frac{2 \times \mathrm{M}_{\mathrm{w}}}{\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{A}} \times(2.5)^3}}=3.90 \end{aligned}
