In the Gradient Panel, click on the Gradient Slider and change the color of the pointer filled with black color. The new color to be filled is #a7a9ac.
Change the gradient color
In a similar way fill the other two sides of the cube with the same Gradient but the angle of the gradient will be different on all the sides.
On the right side of the cube, reverse the applied gradient and on the top of the cube, the angle of the gradient will be 90o.

Now select all the sides of the cube and group them by pressing Ctrl + G. Reduce the size of the cube.
Select the cube and press and hold the Alt key and drag the cube to create a duplicate copy of it.
