Yeah, just googling (without quotes):I think it is much higher than that.
how many people know how to solve the rubik's cube
The first search result states:
It is estimated that only 5.8% of the total population can solve the Rubik's cube. So if you are among the elite ones, you deserve to take pride in the feat achieved. While learning to solve the Rubik's cube the mind multi-tasks.
So according to that, P(someone can solve the 3x3x3 cube) is approximately 29/500.
(There are A LOT of people who can solve the cube who never participated in a competition, and I'm guessing that percentage is going to increase over time as the thresholds for being able to enter become more strict... as the overall times continue to decrease and cubing tutorials get better and better.)
