As we learnt in

Gauss's Law -

Total flux linked with a closed surface called Gaussian surface.

Formula:

\phi = \oint \vec{E}\cdot d\vec{s}=\frac{Q_{enc}}{\epsilon _{0}}

 

- wherein

No need to be a real physical surface.

Qenc - charge enclosed by closed surface.

 

 

Electric flux through  ABCD = Zero

for the charge placed outside the box as the charged enclosed is zero. But for the charge inside the cube, it is     \frac{q}{\varepsilon_{0}}    through all the surfaces. For one surface, it is    \frac{q}{6\varepsilon_{0}}
