Below is a solid sphere of insulating materials (meaning that once placed, charge will not move around even when it feels a force). This sphere has a changing charge density given by the equation below. This tells you that there is more charge near the outer edges (when r is larger) then near the center (when r is small) since the charge density is proportional to r^2. In the image R is the total radius of the sphere and r is the distance from the center you will be asked about. There values are below. You have to calculate the amount of charge enclosed with the radius of r to find the electric field. You'll need to integrate to do this - that's where the charge density equation below will be used. Use Gauss's Law to find the Electric Field magnitude at a distance r from the center of the sphere. Make sure to think about charge enclosed and how to find it. It is a little more complicated in this problem. Be careful with your 2 radial values (R and r).
