  • Question
  • How many of the cubes have at least 2 faces painted?


  • Options
  • A. 19
  • B. 144
  • C. 120
  • D. None of these

  • Correct Answer
  • 19 

    Explanation

    Out of 6 faces of 3 faces are exposed and those were painted.
    Number of vertices with three faces exposed (Painted) is 1
    Number of vertices with 2 faces exposed (Painted) is 3
    Number of vertices with 1 faces exposed (Painted) is 3
    Number of vertices with 0 faces exposed (Painted) is 1
    Number of sides with 2 sides exposed (Painted) is 3
    Number of sides with 1 sides exposed (Painted) is 6
    Number of sides with no sides exposed (Painted) is 3
    From the above observation
    Number of cubes with 3 faces Painted is 1
    Number of cubes with 2 faces Painted is given by sides which is exposed from two sides and there are 3 such sides and from one we will get 6 such cubes hence required number of cubes is 6 x 3 = 18
    Number of cubes with 1 face Painted is given by faces which is exposed from one sides and there are 3 such faces hence required number of cubes is 36 x 3 = 108
    Number of cubes with 0 face Painted is given by difference between total number of cubes - number of cubes with at least 1 face painted = 343 - 1- 18 - 108 = 216
    In other words number of cubes with 0 painted is (7 - 1)3 = 216.
    From the above explanation number of the cubes with at least 2 faces painted is 18 + 1 = 19.
