The Rubik’s Cube

A Rubik’s Cube is a 3D puzzle consisting of 27 smaller cube pieces or “cubies” that can be rotated, allowing the user to rearrange the colours. The goal is to arrange the cube so that each face displays a single, solid colour. The Cube has 6 different coloured faces which include red, blue, orange, green, white, and yellow. The original and most common kind of Rubik’s cube is the 3x3x3 cube. There are many different variations of this cube ranging from the smallest being 2x2x2 and the largest commercially available Rubik’s cube is the 21x21x21 cube.
