How to calculate packing efficiency of cubic unit cell of diamond ?

›
Diamond structure is ZnS type structure    in which carbon atoms forms    a   face   centred cubic (FCC/CCP) lattice  as well as    four out...

The edge length of unit cubic cell of diamond is 356.7 pm and this cubic unit cell contains 8 carbon atoms calculate (A) Distance between two carbon atoms, assuming them to spheres in contact (B) Radius of carbon atoms (C) Fraction of the total volume that is occupied by the carbon atoms.
