Don't touch the center. It is already even.
Start anywhere by connecting a dotted line from one vertex to the next. To keep things so we know what we are talking about, go clockwise. Now you have 2 points that are Eulerized that were not before.
Skip and edge and do the same thing to the next two vertices. Those two become eulerized. Skip an edge and do the last 2.
Let's try to describe this better. Start at any vertex and number them 1 to 6 clockwise.
Join 1 to 2
Join 3 to 4
Join 5 to 6
I think 3 is the minimum.
3 <<<< answer
I will do my best to explain this “ x method “ I use
Basically, two factors of the first and last number must multiply together to sum up to equal the middle number
1 X 12
1 4
(x+12) (x+4)
Hope this helps!

Answer:
5in by 5in by 5in
Step-by-step explanation:
We are not told wat to find but we can as well find the dimension of the prism that will minimize its surface area.
Given
Volume = 125in³
Formula
V = w²h ..... 1
S = 2w²+4wh ..... 2
w is the side length of the square base
h is the height of the prism
125 = w²h
h = 125/w² ..... 3
Substitute eqn 3 into 2 as shown
S = 2w²+4wh
S = 2w²+4w(125/w²)
S = 2w²+500/w
To minimize the surface area, dS/dw = 0
dS/dw =4w-500/w²
0= 4w-500/w²
Multiply through by w²
0 = 4w³-500
-4w³ = -500
w³ = 500/4
w³ =125
w = cuberoot(125)
w = 5in
Get the height
125 =w²h
125 = 25h
h = 125/25
h = 5in
Hence the dimension of the prism is 5in by 5in by 5in
