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


  • Options
  • A. 31
  • B. 44
  • C. 12
  • D. None of these

  • Correct Answer
  • 31 

    Explanation

    Out of 6 faces of 4 faces are exposed and those were painted.
    Number of vertices with three faces exposed (Painted) is 2
    Number of vertices with 2 faces exposed (Painted) is 4
    Number of vertices with 1 faces exposed (Painted) is 2
    Number of vertices with 0 faces exposed (Painted) is 0
    Number of sides with 2 sides exposed (Painted) is 5
    Number of sides with 1 sides exposed (Painted) is 6
    Number of sides with no sides exposed (Painted) is 1
    From the above observation:
    Number of cubes with 3 faces Painted is 2
    Number of cubes with 2 faces Painted is given by sides which is exposed from two sides and required number of cubes is 6 x 4 + 1 x 5 = 29 since there are 4 edges will give us 6 cubes from 1 edge and 1 edge (between two vertices which are painted or exposed from 3 sides) will give us only 5 cubes.
    Number of cubes with 1 face Painted is given by faces which is exposed from one sides and required number of cubes is 36 x 2 + 30 x 2 = 132
    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 - 2 - 29 - 132 = 180
    In other words number of cubes with 0 painted is 6 x 6 x 5 = 180
    From the above explanation number of the cubes with at least 2 faces painted is 29 + 2 = 31.
