    Ok so assuming you ahve a rectangle (since you gave legnth and width)

    area=legnth times width

    perimiter=L+L+W+W=2L+2W=2 (L+W)

    area=36

    some factors are

    6 and 6

    4 and 9

    3 and 12

    2 and 18

    1 and 36

    those are only whole numbers, but tat is for ease

    so add and mutliplyby 2 (preimiter

    6 and 6, P=2 (6+6) = 24

    4 and 9, P=2 (4+9) = 26

    3 and 12, P=2 (3+12) = 30

    2 and 18, P=2 (2+18) = 40

    1 and 36, P=2 (1+36=74
