RE: If the size of the fruit is two times the size of the seed. Then what is the volume of the seed. (derive general equation)
 
Lets assume the fruit to be spherical in shape.
So, volume of seed = (4/3) (pi) (r^3)
      volume of fruit   = (4/3) (pi) ((2r)^3)
       (volume of seed/volume of fruit) = (1/8)

   So, the general formula is:
8*(volume of seed) = 1*(volume of fruit)

I think I am right. If not, pardon me.
