4m x 12m is 48 square metre’s and there are 50 200mm x 100mm blocks to a metre square so you would need 2400 blocks

you will need to allow additional blocks for any wastage on you cuts to the edges and this will depend if your laying pattern is square to the house or on a 45 degree angle to the house

Yes you do need a hardcore sub base for any block paving to allow water to drain away, you need to remove the existing turf and soil to a depth of at least 200mm to allow for 150mm well compacted hardcore, 50mm zone 2 grit sand and 50mm for your block paving

hope this helps
