Let L and M be finite dimensional linear spaces over the field F. Prove that $ dim L/L_{0}= dim M/M_{0}$.

Let $L$ and $M$ be finite dimensional linear spaces over the field $F$ and let $g : L times M to F$ be a bilinear mapping. We shall call the set
$L_{0} = {l ∈ L : g(l, m) = 0text{ for all }m ∈ M}$
the left kernel of $g$ and the set
$M_{0} = {m ∈ M : g(l, m) = 0text{ for all }l ∈ L}$
the right kernel of $g$. Prove that $ dim L/L_{0} = dim M/M_{0}$.

Yes, row rank of Gram matrix of bilinear form equals the column rank of Gram matrix.

Maybe you can appreciate a “matrix free” proof.
Define $varphicolon Lto (M/M_0)^*$ by
$$
varphi(x)colon y+M_0mapsto g(x,y)
$$
(where $(M/M_0)^*$ is the dual space to $M/M_0$). For every $xin L$, the linear form $varphi(x)$ is well defined, because if $yin M_0$, then $g(x,y)=0$. The map $varphi$ is clearly linear.
The kernel of $varphi$ is precisely $L_0$, hence $dim(L/L_0)ledim(M/M_0)^*=dim(M/M_0)$.
By symmetry, also the reverse inequality holds.
