16 is correct because question said either black or red NOT Both so edges will be excluded as two green faces are there.

The logic which does NOT include the corners is faulty. The question asks for cubes that have "black or red". It does not specifically exclude the corners which happen to have both black and red.
The logic of "OR" is correctly applied to the corners. They have black or red coloring. The correct answer then gives 12 surfaces on each face x 2 = 24. Please give reference material that would exclude the corners in such logic.

Question is asking, the cubes which have one face green and other face either red or black (it will not include the cubes which have both red and black faces along with green face i.e. eight cubes at the corner will also be excluded).
Answer is 16. i.e. 8+8.
Answer is 16. i.e. 8+8.

Total no.of blocks with green color=32
one face green and other one is either red or green is:32-8(corner blocks which are 3 face colored)-8(blocks with only one face green colored)=16.
one face green and other one is either red or green is:32-8(corner blocks which are 3 face colored)-8(blocks with only one face green colored)=16.
