Solution
Length of the side of paper cube = 7 cm
Length of the side of Anan’s cube
= 2 × 7 cm
= 14 cm
We can fit 4 paper cubes, each of side 7 cm in the first layer of the big cube.
As the length of each side of the big cube is 14 cm, there will be a total of 2 layers with each layer containing 4 paper cubes.
So, number of paper cubes in 2 layers = 2 × 4 = 8
Thus, 8 paper cubes will fit inside Anan’s big cube.
