Slicing Butter
If you want to split a cubic piece of butter into 27 smaller cubes, you can easily do it using just 6 slices (imagine the Rubik Cube). However, after every slice you make you can also rearrange the pieces – stack them in different ways on top of each other
SOLUTION
In order to separate the little cube in the center of the butter piece from the rest, you need 6 slices – that’s the number of sides it has. Therefore you can’t accomplish the task with less than 6 cuts.
