Discussion Forum : Cube and Cuboid - Cube and Cuboid 3 (Q.No. 4)
Directions to Solve
The following questions are based on the information given below:
- A cuboid shaped wooden block has 4 cm length, 3 cm breadth and 5 cm height.
- Two sides measuring 5 cm x 4 cm are coloured in red.
- Two faces measuring 4 cm x 3 cm are coloured in blue.
- Two faces measuring 5 cm x 3 cm are coloured in green.
- Now the block is divided into small cubes of side 1 cm each.
4.
How many small cubes will have two faces coloured with red and green colours ?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Required number of small cubes = 6 from the top and 6 from the bottom = 12

We can determine in this way:
n1 = 4 cm /1 cm ( small cube side ) = 4.
n2 = 3/1 = 3.
n3 = 5/1 = 5.
5*4 side has Red colour,
5*3 side has a green colour. in these dimensions, 5 is common.
So the number of two face R-B colour is 4*(5-2) = 12.
Extra:-
In this manner, we can write,
5*4 is red and 4*3 is blue, sothe common is 4, hence,
number of two face R-B colour = 4*(4-2) = 8.
Also,
4*3 is blue and 5*3 is green so, 3 is common.
So,
number of two-face B-G colour = 4* ( 3-2) = 4.
Total number of two face colour = 12+8+4 = 24.
n1 = 4 cm /1 cm ( small cube side ) = 4.
n2 = 3/1 = 3.
n3 = 5/1 = 5.
5*4 side has Red colour,
5*3 side has a green colour. in these dimensions, 5 is common.
So the number of two face R-B colour is 4*(5-2) = 12.
Extra:-
In this manner, we can write,
5*4 is red and 4*3 is blue, sothe common is 4, hence,
number of two face R-B colour = 4*(4-2) = 8.
Also,
4*3 is blue and 5*3 is green so, 3 is common.
So,
number of two-face B-G colour = 4* ( 3-2) = 4.
Total number of two face colour = 12+8+4 = 24.

According to me;
4(n1- 2) + 4(n2- 2) + 4(n3- 2) = 4(4- 2) + 4(3- 2) + 4(5- 2)=24 is the answer.
4(n1- 2) + 4(n2- 2) + 4(n3- 2) = 4(4- 2) + 4(3- 2) + 4(5- 2)=24 is the answer.

According to me, the Answer is 24.
4(n1-2) + 4 (n2-2) + 4(n3-2).
n = 4.
4*2 + 4*1 + 4*3 = 24.
4(n1-2) + 4 (n2-2) + 4(n3-2).
n = 4.
4*2 + 4*1 + 4*3 = 24.

Yeah, it should be 20.

Answer should be 20 as it is not written 'only two colours'.

The answer should be 20.

Here nothing is written about other face colour.
So it should not matter whether it is coloured or not so I think 20 is answer.
