A square has 4 sides therefore 3 squares from 12 toothpicks will simply be three unconnected squares
move
Start with a 2x2 square (that uses 8 toothpicks) Use the other two to make a 1x1 square in one of the corners of the big one..
Arrange the 9 toothpicks thus: 7 + 3
Are these numbers decimals? Is it 14.35 inches and 3.15 inches? If that is the case, then 14.35/3.15 = 4.56 or 4 toothpicks.

Make one square out of four toothpicks and then make another square using one of the sides of the first square and the remaining three toothpicks. It is easy. Make a square out of four toothpicks. Put three toothpicks around one of the bottom corners of your first square to form a second square. IGNORE THE LINES LOOK AT THE NUMBERS! 1__2 3__4__7 ___5__6

You arrange 12 toothpicks into a large square, subdivided into four squares : 2 toothpicks on each side and four more, one each from the middle of the sides to the center of the large square. Now you have four (small) squares. Take away 2 adjacent toothpicks from the ones in the center, and you have 2 squares : one remaining small one and the large one that has the small one inside it.

24 toothpicks.
You make 3-D! Look... 6 squares in one cube and you can do that with toothpicks too!
Arrange the 9 toothpicks thus: 7 + 3
using four of them you make a square then using the remaining two make a criss cross in the middle of the square.
Old one. Make a square out of four squares, then remove two adjacent inside toothpicks. This leaves a large square with a small square inside.
-- eat 3 marshmallows -- give away the toothpicks -- the remaining marshmallow is a 3-d figure all by itself
