Detailed Solution

It is given that a square has an area of 12m2.
We know that area of square=length×length.
For option 1,
A square with side of 12 m means the area is 12×12= 144m2.
Hence, option 1 is not correct.
For option 2,
12 squares with side 1 m each means the area of each square is 1×1= 1 m2.
Therefore, 12 squares = 12 m2.
This is the correct option.
For option 3,
There are 3 squares with side 4 m.
This means each square has area of 4×14=16 m2.
Hence the total area of 3 squares=3×16
=48 m2
The option is incorrect.
For option 4,
There are 4 squares with side 3 m.
This means each square has area of 3×3= 9 m2.
Hence the total area of 4 squares=4×9
=36 m2
The option is incorrect.
Therefore, the correct option is 2.
