Steps and explanation please.

A sample of PCI was placed in a container and the following reaction was allowed to come
to equilibrium.
PCI³(g) = PCI³(g) + Cl2(g)
The equilibrium concentrations were found to be [PCIs] = 4.55 M and [PC|3] = [Cl₂] = 0.437
M.
Calculate the equilibrium constant, Kc, for the reaction.
