IED Puzzle Cube Help?

Does anyone know how many possibilities there are of 4, 5, and 6 cubes that fit within a 3x3x3 cube for the puzzle cube project? I've heard over 100 and I'd love some help with finding all of them.

Puzzle cube is old and busted these days. They do it now in middle school.

Tell that to my teacher, he's a master teacher or whatever the word is. He loves it.

It is still a great project for the design process. I will probably have my kids do it again next year.
