We have 5 cubes and we're going to put them together, following
a few simple rules: 1. the cubes must be together face-to-face;
2. they must not be toppling over.
We're going to paint the faces that can be seen. One Brush Load
(BL - a kind of unit that we'll use) will paint one square face.
Challenge Can you find ways of arranging 5 cubes so that:
• you need as few BLs as possible?
• you need as many BLs as possible?
Draw your solutions.
What happens if you use more cubes, for example 6, 7, 8 ...? Can
you find out the smallest number of BLs and the largest number of
BLs possible in each case? Can you predict the arrangements which
need as few BLs as possible and as many BLs as possible?
