When the Large cube is broken into its 27 smaller cubes :
When the cube is completely immersed into the orange paint the exterior parts of the cube will be painted completely. A cube has equal length, width and height hence all the smaller cubes will have the same dimensions.

12 cubes will have 2 painted sides
8 cubes will have 3 painted sides
6 cubes will have 1 painted side
1 cube will have 0 painted side
Hence we can conclude that; 12 cubes will have 2 painted sides, 8 cubes will have 3 painted sides, 6 cubes will have 1 painted side, and 1 cube will have 0 painted side.
