Step 1 : Introduction to the question "3. Erno Rubik is typically credited with inventing the Rubik's cube. In what country did this take place?"
...1. The Philippines 2. The United States 3. Hungary 4. Cuba A Rubik's Cube is a typical 6 sided cube with a different color on each side. Each side is split into 9 squares. When twisted the cube can be scrambled to where the colors are mixed up. Then you try twisting it in any direction until the colors are back to normal. The cube is solved when the face of each side is one solid color. In the movie "The Pursuit of Happiness" starring Will Smyth and his son Jaden we see Will Smith's character solving one in not much time. The movie was set in the early 80s when the cube was first introduced to the US. The Rubik's Cube was originally supposed to help Erno's students understand 3D. He didn't even know he had a puzzle on his hands until he scrambled it and had interesting times trying to restore it. He received a Hungarian patent for it in 1975 and a US patent in 1983.
