Other way of solving.

We have 3 formula for for same problem like one or 2 or 3 faces:

No side colored = (n-2)^3.

One side colored = 6*(n-2)^2.

2 side colored = 12*(n-2).

3 sided colored for cube always 8.

If all the side is colored thenn the formula is

For only one side color = 6* (segment line -2) ^2.
