The electric field in a region is given by \( \vec{E} = (2\hat{i} + 4\hat{j} + 6\hat{k}) \times 10^{3} \, \text{N} /{C} \). The flux of the field through a rectangular surface parallel to x-z plane is \( 6.0 \, \text{N m}^{2} \, \text{C}^{-1} \). The area of the surface is ______ \( \text{cm}^{2} \).
