Answer:6 cubes
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 2 ways that I think you could solve this.
1. First, you could make those 2 missing cubes actual cubes, so then you could find the volume of the cube by doing 2x2x2(length x width x height) and you would get 8 cubes. After that, you would take away the two missing cubes, and you would get 6 cubes.
2. You could also just count the cubes. I counted the two inner cubes and then counted the 4 outer cubes, and got 6 cubes.
Hope this helps!
