Question

Solid cube with 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.


how many cubes are there in all?

Answer 1

To get the number of the small cubes, we can get the volume of the big cube then we divide by the volume of the small cubes.

Volume of the big cube = 8x8x8 = 512

Volume of small cube = 2x2x2 = 8

Number of small cubes =  512/8


                                     = 64

We will get 64 small cubes in total

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the number of the small cubes, we can get the volume of the big cube then we divide by the volume of the small cubes.

Volume of the big cube = 8x8x8 = 512

Volume of small cube = 2x2x2 = 8

Number of small cubes = 512/8

= 64

We will get 64 small cubes in total
