according to Gauss theorem electric flux through a closed surface is 1/€ times the change enclosed by the closed surface
i.e. integration of E.ds=q/€
where q is the charge enclosed by the closed surface .
now coming to the question ,
dipole is enclosed in the cube but we know dipole is the system of two same magnitude charge which opposite sign
and take small distance .
it means inside cube charge=0
so electric flux =q/€=0/€=0


abhi178: I hope this is helpful

Hey !!

Zero ( as net charge enclosed by the surface is zero ).

DETAILED EXPLANATION

In a cubic surface, the net electric charge will be zero since dipole carries equal and opposite charges. It is observed that the net electric flux through closed surface will be

                                         = Charge enclosed / ε₀

and because the charge enclosed is zero.

  electric flux is also zero.


Good luck !!
