His average solve time for each Rubik’s cube over the course of that video demonstration run was 14.79 seconds. He says he had an average solve time as low as 12.50 seconds during two practice ...

NEW YORK — If you’ve ever had trouble solving a Rubik’s Cube, a good piece of advice is to break it down into steps. It’s worth a shot: That advice is from the man who invented it.

The Rubik's Cube was created 50 years ago by Hungarian inventor Ernő Rubik. Since then, over 500 million of them have been sold. We dive into this global phenomenon that's captured the ...
