Total no. of cubes colored with black and green = 4.
Total no. of cubes = 6*4*1 = 24.
Answer: 24-4 = 20.
Hence answer should be 20 not 16 according to question.

The word "only" is missing.
Hence when we say black and green colored cubes.
It includes all the cubes which are black in colour and all the cubes which are green in colour.
Hence when we say black and green colored cubes.

Why we include corner cubes. There are only 4 cubes with only Black and Green color. 4 cubes with Red, Black and Green colors and 8 cubes with only Green color, 8 cubes with Green and Red color.
According to Question We have to consider cubes with only Black and Green color and no other color. Right now we are considering 4 cubes (with only black and Green color) and 4 corner cubes (with all the three colors Black+Green+red) for counting total number of Black and green cubes.
So Answer should be 24-4 = 20.

All no of cubes which colored by green and black both = 8.
Because black colored in left and right both sides,
When we remove these two sides we will have only. 16 small cubes.
Those colored only with red & green.
Do you understand shilpi.
