How to solve this
Answer Posted / lalitha
we have a simple formula to find all these
no of cubes unpainted will be (n-2)^3
no of cubes painted one side is 6(n-2)^2
no of cubes painted on two sides 12(n-2)
no of cubes painted three sides is always 8
for a complete cube
n denotes the cube dimension
eg n=4 here(since dimension is 4*4*4)
