Anagram for the Day

Cubes Puzzle

You have a very large number of generic plastic building blocks, each in the shape of a cube.

Think about how many cubes you would need in order to construct a giant cube with 16 small cubes along each edge?

If you were to then remove the outside layer, how many small cubes would you have removed?

Solution (Previous Puzzle):

£5.00.

Working backwards:

On Thursday I had £1.25.

On Wednesday I had £1.25 x (1 ÷ one half) = £2.50.

On Tuesday I had £2.50 x (1 ÷ two thirds) = £3.75.

On Monday I had £3.75 x (1 ÷ three quarters) = £5.00.

An anagram is a word made by using letters of another word in a different order.
Example: shot à host
