You will get no 8.5 yard squares!
The answer obviously depends on the units used for the 8.5 squares. But since you have not bothered to provide that crucial bit of information, I cannot provide a more useful answer.

Very many if they are much smaller than the hexagon.If the square is to have the same length side as an equilateral hexagon and you are not allowed to cut the square then one.If you are allowed to cut the square but it (they) have to have the same length side as an equilateral hexagon then: about 2.6 [Exactly (3 * (Sqrt 3)) / 2 ]
yes, because if you cut the rectangle in half it would make 2 squares
The probability of the event given in the question is 0.
-- The area of each little square is 1 square meter. -- The area of the big square is 9 square meters. -- So 9 little ones will cover the big one. Note: If the big one wasn't in the shape of a 3m x 3m square or a 1m x 9m rectangle, then you might have to cut up some of the little ones to make them fit the shape, but even so, 9 of them would exactly cover the bigger shape.

Assuming each square has a side length of 6 inches, you can cut 16 squares from 1 yard of fabric. This is because 1 yard is equal to 36 inches, and each square requires 6 inches of fabric for one side.
A half yard of fabric is 18 inches long (since a yard is 36 inches). To determine how many 10x10 inch squares can be cut from this, you can fit one square in the 18-inch length, but you cannot fit a full square in the 36-inch width. Therefore, you can only cut one 10x10 square from a half yard of fabric.
To determine how many 5-inch quilt squares fit in one yard of fabric, first convert one yard to inches, which equals 36 inches. Since a 5-inch square can be cut from the fabric, you can fit 7 squares along one side of the yard (36 ÷ 5 = 7.2, rounded down to 7). Therefore, you can fit 7 squares along both the width and height of the yard, resulting in a total of 49 squares (7 x 7 = 49) in one yard of fabric.
To determine how many 5x5 squares can be cut from 1 yard of fabric, first convert yards to inches: 1 yard equals 36 inches. A 5x5 square measures 25 square inches. The total area of the fabric is 36 inches x 36 inches, which is 1,296 square inches. Dividing the total area (1,296) by the area of one square (25) gives you 51.84, so you can fit 51 full 5x5 squares in 1 yard of fabric.
To determine how many 14 x 14 inch square pieces can be cut from 1 yard of fabric, first convert 1 yard to inches: 1 yard = 36 inches. Since each square piece is 14 inches, you can fit 2 squares along each dimension of the yard (36 ÷ 14 = 2.57, which means 2 full squares). Therefore, you can cut a total of 4 (2 x 2) square pieces from 1 yard of fabric.
If the fabric is 44 inches wide and 36 inches long (one yard), you will get a maximum of 4 x 3 or 12 10-inch squares.
A charm square typically measures 5 inches by 5 inches. Since there are 36 inches in a yard, you can fit 7 charm squares across the width (36 ÷ 5 = 7.2, rounded down to 7) and 7 charm squares down the length (also 36 ÷ 5 = 7.2). Therefore, you can cut a total of 49 charm squares (7 squares wide by 7 squares long) from 1 yard of fabric.
A yard of fabric typically yields four fat quarters. A fat quarter is a cut of fabric that measures approximately 18 inches by 22 inches, which is one-quarter of a yard, but cut in a way that provides a larger rectangular piece compared to a standard quarter-yard cut. Thus, from one yard, you can cut four fat quarters.
Measure in inches the width of the fabric. This will usually be 36", 54" or 72" but may be something different. Ignore any surplus beyond a multiple of 6 as this portion won't enable you to create a 6" square. Call the width W. The total area of the fabric is W x 36 (as the length is 1 yard = 3 ft = 36") The area of each 6" square is 36 sq in. Then divide W x 36 by 36 to get the number of squares - and this results in W. In other words if the fabric is 82" long - we can only use 78" for making squares then you can cut out 78 squares.
There are 4 fat quarters in a yard of fabric.When fabric comes off the bolt it is stored on, it is folded in half so that the selvedge ends are touching. To cut a fat quarter, a half yard is cut from the bolt of fabric. This half yard is then cut in half along the fold, resulting in a quarter yard of fabric (half of a half is a quarter).The fat quarter is used often in quilting because it provides more usable space for quilters than a standard quarter yard cut. A standard quarter yard is 9 inches wide, by the width of fabric on the bolt (anywhere between 40-44 inches is standard width of fabric). A fat quarter is wider, but less long at 18 inches wide by 20-22 inches long.Even though the fat quarter has a different length and width than a standard quarter yard cut, it still represents a quarter yard of fabric. Since four quarters make a whole, each yard of fabric can be cut into exactly 4 fat quarters.
2 fat quarters would be 1/2 yard. A fat quarter is 1/4 yard of fabric, but instead of cutting the quarter yard from selvage to selvage ( 9 inches ) it is cut at 18 inches and then cut in half. This way you have a wider piece of fabric to work with, but still have 1/4 yard.
Dedicated quilting fabrics are made to a width of 44 inches and generally fabric is bought in lengths of (or multiples of) a yard. A "fat quarter" is a piece of fabric which measures 18 inches by 22 inches, that is, a yard of fabric cut in half both widthways and lengthways to give four quarters of 18"x22" each.
