Short/Brief Note

Solution
If we move the charge to a distance d and the square side changes to 2d, still the point charge can be imagined at the centre of a cube of side 2d.
Again the flux through one face of the cube will be 1/6 of the total electric flux due to the charge q.
Hence, the electric flux through the square will not change and it will remain the same i.e q/6ε
