Performance question (RoC)

Good morning people...

Just started my days studying only to be haunted by a question I came across last time and still can't work the bugg$* out.

If anyone can explain what needs to be done would be a big help. Failing this I'll call my tutor tomorrow. Here goes and no laughing!!

An aircraft with a gradient of 3.3% flying at an IAS of 85Kt at a pressure altitude of 8000ft with a temperature of +15 C will have a rate of climb of:

a) 284ft/min
b) 623ft/min
c) 1117ft/min
d) 334ft/min

Any help on how you get to the answer would be soooo much appreciated.
Thanks.
