If perimeter does not refer to surface area, then given a perimeter P for all cubes the perimeter of a single cube would be :

(4*P)/14

since the perimeter of 6 cubes would be equal to 14 cube side lengths.  A single cube has a perimeter of 4 cube side lengths.

so length of a cube side would be given by P/14 and perimeter of a single cube would be 4 times this

The ans is p/(5*2 +4*4)=size of one face
where 4 middle cubes 4 faces and 2 side cubes 5 faces involved in perimeter calculation..
Now perimeter of a cube =6*size of a face.
