Question

How many cubes have only silver colour?

• A. $4$
• B. $8$
• C. $12$
• D. $16$

Answer 1

Answer: (B)

$8$

A cube is painted maroon on opposite two surfaces, the other two opposite surfaces are painted with Silver colour, and out of the remaining two surfaces one is painted Orange and other is painted Green.

The cubes on silver surface will have silver colour.

But the cubes which are not side cubes will have silver colour on only one face.

For each silver surface, $4$ such cubes exist.

Since there are two surfaces painted silver, so $8$ cubes will have only silver colour.

Hence, option B is correct.
