    So there are 3 distinct cubes.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    There are total six sides of the cube.

    if we observe the given data and fix the sides of the cube by the color

    So,

    let suppose,

    Blue color is painted on the top side of the cube

    Now, we have left 5 sides

    as per the information 2 sides are painted by Red color

    let suppose,

    1 Red color is painted on bottom side And 1 is on side

    Now, we have left 3 sides

    And 3 sides are green as per the given information.

    1 green color painted on the adjacent side of the red side

    1 green side is opposite of red side.

    and 1 opposite of green side.

    Now all side are colored and if we observe the above scenario

    All other possibilities can be rotated to one of these.

    So there are 3 distinct cubes.
