Hello, could you please help me with a very simple thing, but I can't do it, I've looked for several tutorials, but I haven't found anything that could help me.
I need to create some circles in these formats, and I don't have much experience with Ilustration, if you can help me I'll be grateful.
You can try a thick dashed stroke with a variable width profile:
Like this (and in the end you can always use Object > Path > Outline Stroke to remove one of the dashes).

Thank you very much for the tips I managed to do, but there were some scratches between one square and another, in fact I created a circle and used your suggestion. I want those little scratches shown in the red arrow not to show up.
I would like this circle to have exactly 16 squares and not 22 I couldn't find where I can change these values.

You can change the amount of dashes by varying the Dash, Gap and Weight of the stroke.
I cannot replicate the scratches that you mentioned, is it a single path?

Could you please demonstrate this with Illustrator open, how can I change this?

You were amazing with your answers, I don't even know how to thank you. I did what you suggested and it worked great.
Thank you so much, I wish you all the luck in the world and have a blessed week. 🙂 🤗

Depending on the desired result, you can use an artbrush, for example. Or you can use pathfinder operations with two circles and a star.

Or construct it from scratch (there are many ways to get there) :
Your image in the background + 2 circles and 1 star
 
fill the inner circle and the star with black (and no stroke)
cut both and
paste in place in the opacity mask of the outer circle (which I filled with blue)
 
the "same" as your own example image
