Anyone have the formula for hexagonal packing of circles in a rectangle?

Actually this is a Porsche Technical question.

Do any math gurus know How many 7/32" circles can be hexagonally packed into a 2" x 6" rectangle?

Or better yet, does anyone have a link to an online calculator to figure this problem out?

Below you will find a photo which may help explain my query.



Thanks for your help
