Cube Cuboid HW
Que : Directions: (Questions 1 to 10) A solid cube of each side 8 cm, has been painted red, blue and
black on pairs of opposite faces. It is then cut into cubical blocks of each side 2 cm.
6. How many cubes have two faces painted red and black and all other faces unpainted?
A) 4
B) 8
C) 16
D) 32
7. How many cubes have only one face painted red and all other faces unpainted?
A) 4
B) 8
C) 12
D) 16
9. How many cubes have one face painted blue and one face painted red? (the other faces may be
painted or unpainted?
A) 16
B) 12
C) 8
D) 0
Ans: Cubes have no face painted = Inner Cubes (No Colour): We can find out the total number of
cubes without any colour on any side (inner cube) with this formula: (X-2)^3
Implementation of formula: X = 4
(4-2)^3 = 2^3 = 8
Ans: Cubes have only one face painted =Central cubes : In middle of faces & has only one coloured
side.
We can find out the total number of cubes with singe colour on any side with this formula: 6(X-2)^2
Implementation of formula: X = 4
6(4-2)^2 = 6(2)^2 = 24
Ans: Cubes have only two faces painted =Middle Cubes: In middle of edges and have two coloured
sides.
We can find out the total number of cubes with singe colour on any side with this formula:12(X-2)
Implementation of formula: X = 4
12(4-2) = 12(2) = 24
Ans: Cubes have only three faces painted =Corner cubes : Cubes on corners and have three
coloured sides.
A cube can have only 8 cut-corner cubes with colours on three sides. Hence answer will be always
the same = 8.
Ans: Cubes have three faces painted = Corner cubes : Cubes on corners and have three coloured
sides.
A cube can have only 8 cut-corner cubes with colours on three sides. Hence answer will be always
the same = 8.
Ans: Cubes have two faces painted red and black and all other faces unpainted = 4+4 = 8
Ans: Cubes have only one face painted red and all other faces unpainted = Central Cubes of Red
Face = 4+4 = 8
Ans: None
Ans: Cubes have one face painted blue and one face painted red? (the other faces may be painted or
unpainted = 4+4 = 8
Ans: To find out total number of cubes we use this formula- (X)^3
Implementation of formula: X = 4
(4)^3 = 64
5. How many cubes have three faces painted with different colours?
A) 0
B) 4
C) 7
D) 2
