Unfortunately there isn't an easy solution that can be described in the space of Yahoo Answers.

The basic method I use to solve the cube is to work in layers. Solve the top third of the cube first, then the middle third and finally the bottom third.

Important things to realize, the centers are always fixed (other than rotating) so you can think of the sides as the white side, red side, etc. based on the center square. There are 12 pieces that are "edges" that are where two sides meet. There are 8 pieces that are "corners" that are where three sides meet.

Pick a side to make the top. Place the four edges that will make a cross and match the corresponding sides. Then fill in the corners. This completes the top layer.

Next put the 4 edges into place to complete the 2nd layer.

Finally use moves to put the remaining 4 edges and 4 corners into place.

Most moves get to be second nature, but it took me 2 weeks to solve the cube the first time. You have to discover moves that change a couple cubes (rotate or swap) without messing up the rest of the cube. It's sort of a "mess it up, then restore most of it" type of move that you need.

Apparently there are lots of websites on the internet that purport to explain how to solve the Rubik's cube. Since I solved the cube myself, I've never had a need to read them, but I'm sure you might get some benefit out of a search for "Solving Rubik's Cube"

Don't worry, you don't need math at all!

If you want to learn how to solve the Rubik's cube, try one of these websites for solutions. I find them pretty easy to understand:

match all the colors one each side of it. just keep messing with it until you see a pattern that will solve it. but... you could just take the stickers off and place them all on the correct side. But dont change the middle stickers on each side! good luck! hope u get it bcuz those things r 2 hard 4 me! lol
