Charge and Current

Hey everyone
I’m stuck on a physics question for my homework.
The question is:
An appliance draws a current of 9A
a) how much charge flows in 5 minutes of operation
b) how many electrons flow in 5 minutes

I think I might be able to work out b, except I can’t work out a.
Please leave any help

Many thanks

Have you seen this equation before?

Q = I*T

Use the equation Q = It , (where Q = charge in coulombs, I= current in A, t= time in seconds)
