216 small cubes means assume each small cube having 1cm length.
12. small cubes without red=216-(8 cubes having 3 colors+red is with 8 edges *4+16*2)
=216-8-32-32=144
13. at least 2 face colors = cube with 2 face colors + cube with 3 colors
cube with 2 face color = 12*4 = 48
cube with 3 face color = 8
at least 2 face colors = 48+8=56
14. small cubes without face color = total small cubes - face with at least one color
cube with color on one face = 6*16=96
cube with color on 2 faces = 12*4 = 48
cube with color on 3 faces = 8
cube with no face painting = 216-96-48-8= 64
