The number of square tiles needed is 24 tiles

The formula for calculating the area of a rectangle is expressed as:

A = LW where:

L is the length

W is the width

For the rectangle:

Area = 12 feet × 8 feet

Area = 96ft²

For the square:

Area of a square = L²

Area of a square = 2²

Area of a square = 4ft²

Determine the number of square tiles that will cover the patio.

Number of square tiles needed = Area of rectangle/Area of square

Number of square tiles needed = 96/4

Number of square tiles needed = 24

Hence the number of square tiles needed is 24 tiles.
