- The total number of small cubes with at least two different colours on their faces are equal to 56 .
Given :-
- There is a cube in which one pair of opposite faces is painted Black .
- The second pair of opposite faces is painted Pink .
- The third pair of opposite faces is painted Brown .
- This cube is now cut into 216 smaller but identical cubes .
To Find :-
- How many small cubes are there with at least two different colours on their faces ?
Formula used :-
- Number of cubes with 2 sides painted = 12(n - 2)
- Number of cubes with 3 sides painted = 8 (always)
- n = side of bigger cube .
- Volume of cube = (side)³
Solution :-
Let,
→ side of each smaller cube = 1 unit
so,
→ volume of each smaller cube = (side)³ = (1)³ = 1 unit³
then,
→ volume of 216 smaller cubes = 216 × 1 = 216 unit³
now, let us assume that, side of bigger cube so formed by joing all smaller cubes is equal to n unit .
So,
→ Volume of bigger cube = volume of 216 smaller cubes
→ (n)³ = 216
→ (n)³ = (6)³
cube root both sides,
→ n = 6 unit .
therefore,
→ Total number of small cubes with 2 sides painted = 12(n - 2)
putting n = 6 we get,
→ Total number of small cubes with 2 sides painted = 12(6 - 2) = 12 × 4 = 48 cubes ------ Equation (1)
and,
→ Total Number of small cubes with 3 sides painted = 8 cubes ------- Equation (2)
hence, adding Equation (1) and Equation (2) we get,
→ Total number of small cubes with at least two different colours on their faces = Total number of small cubes with 2 sides painted + Total Number of small cubes with 3 sides painted
→ Total number of small cubes with at least two different colours on their faces = 48 + 8
→ Total number of small cubes with at least two different colours on their faces = 56 cubes (Ans.)
