Question

A box 4 cm by 6 cm by 8 cm is painted on all six faces and then cut into cubes with the 2 cm sides. How many of these cubes have only one side painted?

Answer 1

Answer:

  4

Step-by-step explanation:

2 cubes on each 6 × 8 face will have one surface painted. The sides of dimension 4 cm do not have enough width to have any cubes with only one face painted.

Hence, there are a total of 4 cubes with one face painted.
