Check out a few reactions to this post here:
“Any number from 47 to 51. Need more information to discern further for four of the blocks,” expressed an individual.
Another added, “There’s no way to be sure since we don’t know if the side angle remains the same all the way through. I could be wrong, but I count 35 minimum and 51 maximum.”
“51 assuming the other side view looks the same,” wrote a third.
A fourth commented, “51 cubes. I am right.”
“With the info provided, anything between 35 to 51 would be possible, 51 if you assume each row is ‘completed’,” shared a fifth.
A sixth joined, “Bottom row 7*3, middle row 6*3, top row 4*3. This adds up to 51.”
