The following problem is from both the 2021 Fall AMC 12B #20 and 2021 Fall AMC 12B #24, so both problems redirect to this page.

Problem

A cube is constructed from $4$ white unit cubes and $4$ black unit cubes. How many different ways are there to construct the $2 \times 2 \times 2$ cube using these smaller cubes? (Two constructions are considered the same if one can be rotated to match the other.)

$\textbf{(A)}\ 7 \qquad\textbf{(B)}\  8 \qquad\textbf{(C)}\  9 \qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 10 \qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 11$
