How to solve a Rubik's cube?

Question

First, sorry for my English. Please read the question until the very end.
I currently don't own a Rubik's cube, but I owned one when I was a little kid (like 8,9 years or something). You can just solve the Rubik's cube by doing the opposite moves you did when you messed it up, this time backwards. Solving a Rubik's cube is not the same if the cube is more or less messed up. It can be more difficult or less difficult.
What I actually wanted to ask is why do people on the internet ( the ones who write about solving a Rubik's cube) never mention that it can be solved by the way I mentioned. Is it against the rules? Also, is there a rule about how much should the Rubik's cube be messed up so it is considered a solving. Because if you mess it up a little it is actually very easy to solve. And people on the internet make it seem like it is really hard, so I thought that there must be such a rule.

Answer 2

When a Rubiks cube is messed up so much that you can't remember how you did it or someone else messes it up for you you solve it like the people on YouTube or the Internet. There is no rules to solving a rubiks cube. There are over 43 quintillion ways to solve it! But most people just use a method that has algorithms involved.

Answer 3

Learning to solve a rubiks cube may seem hard, but trust me it's not. I saw a few of my friends do it and told my mom that i wanted to do it to. she got me a rubiks cube and i learned and memorized how to solve it in 2 days. I would watch the dan brown tutorial







do it and take notes on the algorithms. i guarentee you will be able to look and solve the rubiks cube. try it
