There are many ways to solve a Rubik's cube. This is the way I use, the one with algorithms. Here are all the bits of the algorithms. R- turn cube's right column up/L- turn left column down/U- turn top row left/ D- turn bottom row left/F- turn front side clockwise/ B- turn back side counterclockwise (Any thing with an 'i' next to it is inverted or turned the opposite way.) Another thing to know is what the #'s 123456789 mean. When I use it, that tells what piece is being switched with each other. 1- top left corner/2- top edge/3- top right corner/4- middle left edge/ 5- middle/6- middle right edge/7- bottom left corner/8- bottom edge/ 9- bottom right corner The first thing to do is solve the bottom side. I don't use algoritms for that because it is the easiest dang thing ever. When you are doing this, make sure to have the right pieces solved. For example, the blue side has been solved and around the sides touching the blue, they are lined up blue/red/yellow corner piece next to blue/red edge piece next to blue/red/white corner piece. Turn the bottom side so the sides match up to their middle pieces. Secondly, you need to turn the top so that it has a 2 need ing to be moved down to a 4 or a 6. To move the 2 to a 4 do the algorithm: Ui, Li, U, L, U, F, Ui, Fi. To move the 2 to a 6 do the algorithm: U, R, Ui, Ri, Ui, Fi, U, F. Continue this step till all sides have 456789 solved correctly. To get the top cross you need to have that color set up on top with either 456, 5, or 245. On that setup do: F, U, R, Ui, Ri, Fi. Having it in 5 will put it into 456. Having 456 will put it into 245. Having 245 will put it in the cross. The next step is much harder to explain. You are trying to get the top colors on the top, so to say. The algorithm is: R, U, Ri, U, R, U, U, Ri. You need to do that algorithm till either you get it done or it is in 245678. Once it is in 245678 do the algorithm and then flip to the side that has it set up like this again. Do the algorithm again and it should have all the pieces on it. If you did the step before, sometimes it will set the side up so it has two of the corners set up. To switch any wrong corners, turn the top so that any right corners are matched to their sides in the back. Do the algorithm: Ri, F, Ri, B, B, R, Fi, Ri, B, B, R, R. Sometimes this algorithm will solve the cube. To move the edges clockwise or counterclockwise, turn the top til a side is solved (if possible). For clockwise: F, F, U, L, Ri, F, F, Li, R, U, F, F. For counterclockwise: F, F, Ui, L, Ri, F, F, Li, R, U, F, F. Your Rubik's should be solved right now. Happy trails.

There is no specific formula that will solve the rubik's cube every time. If there was, everyone would be able to solve it.

There are however algorithms, or series of movies in an order, that if put together in the right way, can solve the rubik's cube. Look up how to solve a rubik's cube on the internet or You tube to find those.

if you mean the formula for finding out how many possible positions that are on the rubik's cube, it is below:

8! * 3^7 * 12! * 2^10 = 43,252,003,274,489,856,000

There is no "formula". If you want to learn how to solve it, go to the solution guide on the Rubiks website.
