The heat transfer rate due to free convection from a vertical surface, 1 m high and 0.6

Question:

The heat transfer rate due to free convection from a vertical surface, 1 m high and 0.6 m wide, to quiescent air that is 20 K colder than the surface is known. What is the ratio of the heat transfer rate for that situation to the rate corresponding to a vertical surface, 0.6 m high and 1 m wide, when the quiescent air is 20 K warmer than the surface? Neglect heat transfer by radiation and any influence of temperature on the relevant thermo physical properties of air.
