Count cubes of size K inscribed in a cube of size N

Given two integers N and K, the task is to find the number of cubes of size K that can be contained in a cube of size N.

Examples:

Input: N = 2, K = 1
Output: 8
Explanation:
There are 8 cubes of size 1 that can be drawn inside the bigger cube of size 2. 
 

 Input: N = 5, K = 2
Output: 64
Explanation:
There are 64 cubes of size 2 can be drawn inside the bigger cube of size 5.

Approach: The key observation to solve the problem is that the number of cubes inside the cube of size N is (N2 * (N+1)2)/4. Therefore, the cubes of size K inside the cube of size N is:

(N - K +1 )^3

Below is the implementation of the above approach:

C++




// C++ implementation of the
// above approach
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to find the number
// of the cubes of the size K
int No_of_cubes(int N, int K)
{
    int No = 0;
 
    // Stores the number of cubes
    No = (N - K + 1);
 
    // Stores the number of cubes
    // of size k
    No = pow(No, 3);
    return No;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    // Size of the bigger cube
    int N = 5;
 
    // Size of the smaller cube
    int K = 2;
 
    cout << No_of_cubes(N, K);
    return 0;
}


Java




// Java implementation of the
// above approach
class GFG{
 
// Function to find the number
// of the cubes of the size K
static int No_of_cubes(int N,
                       int K)
{
  int No = 0;
 
  // Stores the number of cubes
  No = (N - K + 1);
 
  // Stores the number of cubes
  // of size k
  No = (int) Math.pow(No, 3);
  return No;
}
 
// Driver Code
public static void main(String[] args)
{
  // Size of the bigger cube
  int N = 5;
 
  // Size of the smaller cube
  int K = 2;
 
  System.out.print(No_of_cubes(N, K));
}
}

def No_of_cubes(N, K):
     
    No = 0
  
    # Stores the number of cubes
    No = (N - K + 1)
  
    # Stores the number of cubes
    # of size k
    No = pow(No, 3)
    return No
 
# Driver Code
 
# Size of the bigger cube
N = 5
  
# Size of the smaller cube
K = 2
  
print(No_of_cubes(N, K))

    return No;

    // Size of the bigger cube
    int N = 5;
     
    // Size of the smaller cube
    int K = 2;
     
    Console.Write(No_of_cubes(N, K));
}

Javascript




<script>
 
// JavaScript program for
// the above approach
 
// Function to find the number
// of the cubes of the size K
function No_of_cubes(N, K)
{
  let No = 0;
  
  // Stores the number of cubes
  No = (N - K + 1);
  
  // Stores the number of cubes
  // of size k
  No = Math.pow(No, 3);
  return No;
}
 
// Driver code
 
  // Size of the bigger cube
  let N = 5;
  
  // Size of the smaller cube
  let K = 2;
  document.write(No_of_cubes(N, K));

Output: 

64
