Working on a AP Statistics review and this problem is extra credit. Wondering if anyone would be able to help me out!

"Suppose that both height and weight of adult men can be described with normal models, and that the correlation between these variables is 0.65. If a man's height places him at the 60th percentile, at what percentile would you expect his weight to be?"

If someone could explain how to do this that would be great!
Thanks!
 
I would think that the correlation would give you a range of possible values.
