A painted cube that is cut into 27 equal-size smaller cubes has been cut into a 3 * 3 * 3 arrangement.
There is 1 cube in the very center (middle of 3 in each axis direction -- pitch, roll, and yaw), so 1 cube has no paint.
On each of the 6 sides of the cube, there is a central smaller cube that is painted once.
Also on each of the 6 sides of the cube, there are 4 cubes (at the middle of the edges). These are shared with one other side of the cube (or we could just count the 12 edge lines -- 12). So, 6 * 4 / 2, or just 12, smaller cubes are painted on 2 edges.
That leaves the 8 corners of the original cube, which are painted on 3 surfaces.
1 (no paint) + 6 (painted 1) + 12 (painted 2) + 8 (painted 3) = 27 total
hope it helps.
