i
The group acts transitively on the eight vertices. At a chosen vertex, an isometry fixing it may permute its three incident edges arbitrarily, and each of the six permutations is realized by an isometry. Thus the vertex stabilizer is isomorphic to S3​ and has order six. Orbit-stabilizer gives
∣G∣=8⋅6=48​.

This begins the three stabilizer descriptions in the symmetry group of a cube.
