Dividing it into 16 is easier mathematically, but a 3x5 array fits into a rectangular pan better than a 4x4 array. What to do? My household may be getting daily batches of buns while this one gets sorted out (but they are unlikely to complain).

Still doing maths even though Sydney Mathsjam is over for the month. Here is the problem of the day. Christmas decorations are away ... so it is time to make Easter buns. The recipe says "divide the dough into 15 portions".
