How do I find the intersection of the wrench's LOA?

Homework Statement
A thin rectangular flat plate is loaded by the forces show. Determine a wrench equivalent force system, and specify the y and z coordinates of the point where the wrench's LOA intersects the yz plane.
Relevant Equations
M = Fd
M = r xF
I've solved for the moment using the cross product where my r = 0i+0.06j+0.03k m and my F = 100i + 150j + 0k. I got my moment to be M= 4.5,3,-6. I know a wrench equivalent force must be parallel to the force (I am assuming this means the resultant force in this case), but how do I apply that logic to fid the intersection? I assume I am meant to use the formula M=Fd where F = 300i, 0j, 0k but I am not sure if this is even applicable in this question as it is in 3D.

All in all, I would just like a little push in the right direction.
