I think you just do 64x36 and that should be the answer for both the length and width since a square has all the same sides.

Answer:

Length of quilt =
8* 36 = 288\text{ inches}

Width of the quilt =
8* 36 = 288\text{ inches}

Explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Total Number of squares in the quilt = 64

Dimension of square = 36 inches

Now, we have to find the length and width of the quilt that is made up of 64 squares which measures 36 inches.

Now, the structure of the quilt will be of the form
8 \text{ Squares}* 8\text{ Squares} which will give us a total of 64 squares.

That is the length of quilt contains 8 squares and the width of quilt contains 8 squares.

Thus,

Length of quilt =
8* 36 = 288\text{ inches}

Width of the quilt =
8* 36 = 288\text{ inches}
