I think it would be a bit more beneficial if, instead of writing a response like this one, you showed us what you have worked out so far. That way, we can better point you in a better direction in pointing out any errors and points that you had correct. Also, you will learn if you do it first, rather than just someone doing it for you. However, with this attitude in this above post, you will be hard pressed for someone to help you now.

Why don't you just show us your thinking, rationale, and what you've done so far? Then we would be abele to better help you. Good luck.
