Answer by KMST(5328) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
a) You cut the cube in half in 3 directions:
parallel to the bottom,
parallel to the front,
and parallel to the sides.
Each cut doubles the number of pieces,
until you have
cubes with edges measuring .
b) The cubes have a total of faces.
Each of the painted faces of the original cube
was cut into smaller faces of the smaller cubes,
for a total of small cube painted faces.
If you want all the small cube faces to be painted,
you have to paint the remaining
faces.
