Note that your load (whatever you need the 3.6V for) is one of the divider resistors. You need to know its resistance, or how much current it draws at 3.6V (R=V/I). If the load changes (draws more or less current), its voltage will also change. Using resistors only to drop voltage has no voltage regulation characteristic.
