Right Answer:
To prepare a concrete cube, follow these steps:
1. **Materials**: Gather cement, sand, gravel (or crushed stone), and water.
2. **Mixing**: Use a concrete mixer or a mixing tray to combine the materials in the ratio of 1 part cement, 2 parts sand, and 3 parts gravel. Add water gradually until the mixture is workable but not too wet.
3. **Molding**: Pour the mixed concrete into a cube mold (typically 150mm x 150mm x 150mm) and ensure it fills all corners.
4. **Compacting**: Use a tamper or a vibrating table to compact the concrete and remove air bubbles.
5. **Curing**: Cover the mold with a plastic sheet or wet burlap to retain moisture and allow it to cure for at least 24 hours.
6. **Demolding**: After 24 hours, remove the cube from the mold and place it in a curing environment
