A Basic 5-Step Solution of Rubik's Cube

Step 4: Solve Last Layer Corners

We are now at the last layer. Turn the puzzle over so the last layer is now on top. At this point we can either solve the corners or the edges. In other words, we can do steps 4 and 5 is either order. I'm chosing to do the corners first. We solve them in two stages:

• move all four corner pieces into their correct locations (i.e. permute the corners)
• twist all four corner pieces in their correct orientations (i.e. orient the corners)

To do this we'll use two move sequences, which are shown below this next video.
