How are the number of tetrahedral voids twice the number of octahedral voids in a CCP structure?

Number of tetrahedral voids = 2*number of octahedral voids,

How are the number of tetrahedral voids twice the number of octahedral voids in a CCP structure? Is there some kind of mathematical proof for it? Is there some way I can understand this intuitively?

I have been trying to think about it using this picture but I cannot seem to get anywhere. Any hints?
