A hollow cube of size 5 cm is taken, with a thickness of 1 cm. It is made of smaller cubes of size 1 cm. If 1 face of the outer surface of the cube are painted, totally how many faces of the smaller cubes remain unpainted? a) 900   b) 488    c) 563   d) 800 Ans: Total cubes to form hollow cube ? If it is cube it contains how many cubes =5^3=125 How many number of  small cubes  required to form a hollow cube= 125-3^3=98 Total number of faces in small cubes=98*6=588 number of painted faces=5*5=25 Number of unpainted faces=588-25=563
From a group of 6 men & 5 women, 4 persons are to be selected to form a committee such that at least 2 men are in committee.
