Puzzling Asked by RMagill on January 9, 2021
First time poster – I’m sorry if this is answered somewhere else, but I couldn’t find it.
I have a 5×5 Rubik’s Cube in a similar situation to this previous post – entirely solved, except for a pair of swapped edges: Swap the edges in a solved Rubik's cube.
However, since it’s a 5×5, it’s the full edge (3 pieces) that’s swapped:
It must be some kind of mistake, and I suspect that one of my kids swapped some center pieces. All six centers have removable faces, but no other pieces do. Any suggestion what I should do? Thank you for any suggestions you have!
This should not be possible. If we consider only the "odd-numbered columns" in every 5x5 grid then we have a 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube with two edge pieces swapped and it is well known this is impossible. Therefore we cannot solve the 5x5x5 cube.
