Default Bivariate continuous rv pr dsn

Confused how to integrate this, the answer in the book is .1065 but I'm not getting it..

Joint density of Y_{1} and Y_{1} is given by;
f(y_{1},y_{2}=3y_{1}, 0\leq y_{2} \leq y_{1} \leq 1

And i want to find
F(\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{3})=P(Y_{1}\leq \frac{1}{2}, Y_{2}\leq \frac{1}{3})
So I need to take the double integral right, just not sure what regions I should be using, and which one to integrate first

Thanks!
