I am not teaching, I am helping you to enjoy!
P1 V1/T1=P2 V2/T2 You just need to substitute given numbers in this equation. So, as you see math is so easy and you just need to understand the problem, and the solution is there, always is there!

As long as units at both sides of equation are similar (degrees Celsius, Kelvin, Rankine, ....) it does not matter which unit we use.

The temperatures on both sides of the equation have to be in an absolute scale. If not, the ideal gas relations in the problem statement are not valid. The relation
P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2
is valid only if T1 and T2 are absolute temperatures. You can look this up under ideal gas relations in physics, chemistry, or engineering books and verify this.
