find the greatest common factor (GCF)
in this case it would be 9

divide each term by the GCF
36 / 9 = 4
9y / 9 = y

put the two "new" terms in parenthesis and the GCF in front of it
9 (4 + y)
it could also be 9 (y + 4) because of Commutative Property of Addition

This problem in the distributive form would be 9(4+y) because the greatest common factor, or GCF, is 9. When you divide 36 by 9 you get 4 and 9 divided by 9 is one, therefore leaving the y.
To conclude the answer would be 9(4+y).
I hope this helped! :-)
