Hydraulic Problem...please help...thanks?

A hydraulic lift has two connected pistons with cross-sectional areas 5 cm^2 and 650 cm^2. It is filled with oil of density 719 kg/m3.

With the lift in balance with equal fluid levels, a person of mass 60 kg gets into the car. What is the equilibrium height difference in the fluid levels in the pistons?

Thank You so much for your help.

Answer:
to support the additional 60kg over 650cm² will require an increase in pressure of about 0.092kg/cm², to simplify next step we'll convert to kg/m² = about 923kg/m², dividing this by the 719kg/m³ density gives a height of about 1.28m
