Answer:

width = 12 length = 18

Explanation:

it is just a matter of you pluging in numbers till you get luck so start with the width being 10 and length being 16 but that makes the area to small so just go up from there and make sure the length is 6 more than the width so if the width is 12 and the length is 18 then you multiply those together and you get 216
