Two plates of a parallel plate capacitor...

Two plates of a parallel plate capacitor are 4 mm apart. A slab of dielectric constant 3 and thickness 3mm is introduced between the plates with the faces parallel to them. The distance between the faces is so adjusted that the capacitance of the capacitor becomes `2/3` of its original value. What is the new distance between the plates ?
