To have 12 same size squares in a rectangle the grid of squares will be 1x12, 2x6 or 3x4. This means that the ratio of the length to the width is either 1:12, 2:6, 3:4, 4:3, 6:2 or 12:1. If the ratio of the length to width is none of those, then 12 same-size squares cannot fit.

How many squares are in a rectangle with eight squares?
There are 9 squares I can see 12 squares in an array of 2 * 4 squares
What has 12 edges and it's faces are rectangle and squares?
Rectangular Prism
How many 6 cm squares are needed to cover a rectangle with sides 12 cm and 24 cm?
Eight squares are needed.
How many squares each of side 1.5 cm can fit completely in a rectangle of length 6 cm and breadth 4.5 cm?
12 squares in total.
How can the formula for the area of a square be used to find the area of a rectangle that is 12 feet by 24 feet?
The rectangle can be thought of as two adjacent 12 x 12 squares. Each square has an area of 144 sq. ft., making the entire rectangle 288 sq. ft. thereby creating a needless extra step, since the area of the rectangle is 12 x 24 = 288 sq. ft.

Do 12 squares equal 12 rectangles?
Well, A square is a type of rectangle, so I image 12 squares is the same as saying 12 rectangles. Unless the squares are touching each other, then if two squares are touching then another rectangle would be formed.. etc etc

Ho do you prove the formula for the area of a rectangle?
Use squares and try it out for yourself. Get a number of squares and make a rectangle 3 squares long by 4 squares wide. Count the squares. You should have 12 squares (or 3*4). That's the best way I know to prove the formula.

How many squares are in 12 square foot?
That depends on the size of the suares. For example, there will be a million squares with sides of 0.001 ft each. If the 12 square ft area is in the form of a 6*2 rectangle, there will be space for 3 squares of 2*2. But if the area is 3*4 then 2*2 squares cannot cover it without overlap.
How do you use the dimensions of a rectangle to find factor pairs?
I think you are thinking of using the rectangles like you use Punnet squares. One side is multiplied times the other side and the product is put in the inside squares. This is handy when trying to factor expressions that are polynomials.
How do you present before students in finding the area of a rectangle in simple way?
If for example the rectangles was 4 inches by 3 inches then by marking out 12 equal one inch squares within the rectangle you'll prove that 4 times 3 = 12 square inches.
What is the width of the rectangle if the area is 132 feet and the length is 12 feet?
The equation for a rectangle is h(height) x w(width) = area . By manipulating the equation we can show that width=area/length. So 132/12=11. This means the width of the rectangle is 11.
How many squares in a 3 by 4 grid?
12 squares.
