How many faces does a cube have?

  1. 6

  2. 8

  3. 12

  4. 5

The correct answer is: 6

A cube has 6 faces, each of which is a square. This is because a cube is a three-dimensional shape with six square faces that are all the same size. Option B, 8, is incorrect because a cube does not have any rectangular faces, only square faces. Option C, 12, is incorrect because a cube does not have any triangular faces. Option D, 5, is incorrect because a cube has more than 5 faces. So, the only correct answer is A, 6.
