Buffer Question CCEA chemistry

Does anyone know how to do the following question?

It’s possible to make a buffer in the lab which has the same pH as
blood, 7.4. What mass of sodium ethanoate, CH 3 COONa, would
you need to prepare 1dm 3 of a buffer solution which contains 0.6g
of ethanoic acid, CH 3 COOH. K a of ethanoic acid = 1.74 x 10 -3moldm-3.

Th values here are not wrong, just in case
