How to solve a rubix cube (3*3)

 Here's the beginner's method 


Before starting we need to know some basic algorithms in solving a rubix cube

we mark every face of the puzzle with a letter F (Front), U (Up), R (Right), B (Back), L (Left), D (Down). A letter by itself means a 90 degree clockwise rotation of the face. A letter followed by an apostrophe is a counterclockwise turn.

    • First make a white cross 

The white edge pieces will be in one of three possible locations.

White panel on topOn the top layer
White panel on middleOn the middle layer
White panel on bottomOn the bottom layer

For all of these, it doesn't matter the orientation of the edge piece (which side is white and which is coloured). We will fix that up in the next step if need be.

Now we will place each white edge piece one after the other. The order in which you place them doesn't matter.

  • Move the edge piece down to the bottom layer.
  • Rotate the bottom layer to align the piece directly below the place on the white face where you want it to be.
  • Depending on if the white panel of the edge piece is facing down or to the side use one of the methods listed below to move it to it's correct position on the white face.
  • Pick the next white edge piece to place.

Depending on whether your white edge piece ends up with the white panel on the yellow face or not there are two ways to slot it into place.
