Two wires X,Y have the same resistivity,...

Two wires X,Y have the same resistivity, but their cross-sectional areas are in the ratio `2 : 3` and lengths in the ratio `1 : 2`. They are first connected in series and then in parallel to a.d.c. source. Find out the ratio of drift speeds of the electrons in the two wires for the two cases.
