If your talking about how much surface area it will cover, the answer is 5.5 square feet.

5.5 inches wide by 144 inches long=792 square inches.

792 square inches/12 inches per foot/12 inches per foot since your looking for square feet=5.5 square feet

Another way to look at it is if you were to cut the 12 foot board down to 1 foot boards, you could double them up side by side and that would equal 11 inches x 12 inches. You would have 6 sets of 11 inches by 12 inches. So for each set you lose one inch in width for a total of 6 inches or a half foot. So you get 6 "square feet" minus the 6 inches total for the sets and end up with 5.5 square feet.
