Since total number of cubes is hence in the formula we will substitute n = 6
Number of the cubes with 0 faces painted is (6 - 2)3 = 43 = 64Correct Option: A

Since total number of cubes is hence in the formula we will substitute n = 6
Number of the cubes with 2 faces painted is 6(6 - 2)2
= 6 x 16 = 96Correct Option: C
Since total number of cubes is hence in the formula we will substitute n = 6
Number of the cubes with 2 faces painted is 6(6 - 2)2
= 6 x 16 = 96

Since total number of cubes is hence in the formula we will substitute n = 6
At most 2 faces painted means number of cubes with 0 face painted + number of cubes with 1 face painted + number of cubes
with 2 face painted = 64 + 48 + 96 = 208Correct Option: A
Since total number of cubes is hence in the formula we will substitute n = 6
At most 2 faces painted means number of cubes with 0 face painted + number of cubes with 1 face painted + number of cubes with 2 face painted = 64 + 48 + 96 = 208

Since total number of cubes is hence in the formula we will substitute n = 6
At least 2 faces painted means number of cubes with 2 face painted + number of cubes with 3 face painted = 96 + 8 = 104.Correct Option: B
Since total number of cubes is hence in the formula we will substitute n = 6
At least 2 faces painted means number of cubes with 2 face painted + number of cubes with 3 face painted = 96 + 8 = 104.
