Cosets and Lagrange's Theorem · Medium problem

A group GG has order 3636. An element g∈Gg\in G satisfies g20=eg^{20}=e. By Lagrange, ord⁡(g)\operatorname{ord}(g) divides 3636, and g20=eg^{20}=e forces ord⁡(g)\operatorname{ord}(g) to divide 2020 as well. What is the largest possible value of ord⁡(g)\operatorname{ord}(g)?
