I want to use precast blocks and make a round planter for some trees, I cannot find anywhere a calculator to determine the number of blocks I would need, I would like to make a 36" diameter, double stacked, using standard blocks size or 12" x 7" x 4"

any help would be great..

The circumference of a 36 in. diameter circle is 113 inches. 113 inches divided by 12 inches is 9.4 rounded off to 10 blocks per row.
