Problem 283

Consider the triangle with sides $6$, $8$, and $10$. It can be seen that the perimeter and the area are both equal to $24$. So the area/perimeter ratio is equal to $1$.
Consider also the triangle with sides $13$, $14$ and $15$. The perimeter equals $42$ while the area is equal to $84$. So for this triangle the area/perimeter ratio is equal to $2$.

Find the sum of the perimeters of all integer sided triangles for which the area/perimeter ratios are equal to positive integers not exceeding $1000$.
