$approx 3.7 cdot 10^10 " V m"$

The Flux is:

$Phi = int int_S mathbf E cdot d mathbf S$

And by Gauss' Law:

$int int_S mathbf E cdot d mathbf S = (sum Q)/varepsilon_o$ , with: $varepsilon_o = 8.9 cdot 10^(−12) " F/m"$

Importantly, as the charge is in the centre, we can use the symmetry to say that the flux through 1 face is $Phi' = Phi/6$ .

And:

$Phi' = 1/6 cdot 2/(8.9 cdot 10^(−12)) approx 3.7 cdot 10^10 " V m"$
