Jaylin has a wooden cube which is painted blue on the outside. She cuts the cube into 1000 identical cubes, some of which have some sides painted blue, then rolls the resulting cubes like dice. The probability that no blue faces land up after Jaylin rolls the 1000 cubes can be expressed as 2^a * 3^b * 5^c where a,b and c are integers. What is the value of a+b+c?

The probability is (5394×296)×2−392×3−470=5384×2−296×3−470=−382
Each side of the cube is 3√1000=10.
There are 512 cubes inside that have no faces painted, so the probability is 1512=1
There are 8 corners, each with a probability of 36=12=2−1, so the probability is 128=128
There are 8×12=96 edge pieces (there are 12 edges in a cube, each edge has 8), and each cube has a probability of 46=23, so the probability is 2396=296396
There are 8×8×6=384 center cubes, each with a probability of 56, so the probability is 56384=53846384=53842384×3384.
So, the probability is 128×296396×53842384×3384=5384×2962392×3470=(5384×296)×2−392×3470=5384×2−296×3470
Thus, a+b+c=558
