normally, you first need to calculate surface area of the brick which is 12*12=144. then you need to divide total area to bricks surface area which is 48/144.

but probably they gave the units in terms of cm ot metres,then first you need to make them same unit.

To do this you would need to know the area of a brick and the area of the wall. Then you divide the area of the wall by the area of a brick. There are approximately 60 bricks per square metre.

How many 16 inch bricks needed for a 256 square foot patio?

The question, as stated cannot be answered. You need to know two dimensions of the bricks to find the area of each brick, convert that area into square feet (if necessary) and then divide 256 by the area of each brick. Bricks are not usually square so it would not be appropriate for me to assume that the bricks are 16" by 16".
