I need help setting up this problem.

A resort owner has 104 ft of 6ft fence and she wants to make a dog kennel for boarding guest's dogs. If the kennel is to be 3 times as long as it is wide and it is to be divided into six equal areas by running fences parallel to the width, find the width and length of the kennel.
 
Did you draw a diagram?

If you can't get it from that, you need more help than you can get here.
