How to get audio from XBOX 360 if monitor has speakers but no HDMI?

My title explains it all. Basically the speakers on my new monitor are supposed to be pretty decent (LG), though I have only just ordered it, am wondering how will I get sound from my 360 sent through to the monitor - which cable do I require? Pretty sure the monitor has an analog sound input, so how do I transmit it from the 360 to this? Thanks in advance,=

What monitor is it so we can look @ what connections it has?

D-Sub: Yes
DVI-D: Yes
Headphone Out: Yes
PC Audio In: Yes

you'll need an Xbox 360 VGA HD AV Cable

Then an adapter a bit like this:

Don't get this exact one though because the 2 RCA cables(red and white) won't fit in properly.

Edit: this would be perfect:

Hi thanks for the advice. I am sure my 360 came with the first cable you linked me to (I have the Elite).

VGA cable comes with the RCA to 3.5mm adapter
