There are four 15-minute intervals in an hour. If the cashier served 4 customers in one 15-minute interval, then he would serve 4 x 4 = 16 customers in an hour.

Since the cashier is expected to serve 12 customers every hour, he will meet his goal and serve more customers than expected if he continues to work at the same rate.
