Mr. Bobo loves cheese- one day, Mr. Bobo was walking down the street and he passed a cheese shop. He couldn’t resist so he went in and purchased a 1 foot cube of hard, bright yellow cheese. When he got home, Mr. Bobo decided to cut the cheese into smaller 3 inch cubes in order to give some to his friends.
When he cut the cheese, he was horrified to find that the cheese was only bright yellow on the outside. On the inside of the cube wasn’t bright yellow at all. It was moldy green. He finished cutting the big cube into 3 inch cubes and set them out on the table. He noticed that the 3 inch cubes had some yellow faces and some green faces, but he became confused when he tried to count and rearrange them.
1. How many small cubes does he have?
2. How many cubes have no yellow faces?
3. How many cubes have 1 yellow face?
4. How many cubes have 2 yellow faces?
5. How many cubes have 3 yellow faces?
