From bese, Wwe remove the complato outer layer of the cubes on all faces, wo will have al smaller cubes with aint on them removed and we will be lef with {v= 2) x (n= 2) x (9~ 2) cubes. In this case, ifthe number of cubes that do not havo any feco painiod is 8 itis a 2 x 2 x 2 cube; <0 before painting, it must have een a4 x 4x4 cube, So, ihe orginal cube was cut into 64 Smaller cubes, 2 (B) On each face of the original large cube, if we remove the outer row of cubes ‘along all the four edges, the remaining 2 x 2 (= 4) cubes vill nave exactly one face painied.
