Vector Question

I think I know how to solve this problem, but I would just like to confirm with somebody else's solution.

A plane is flying north with a constant velocity of 300km/h. A wind is blowing from N60°W with a speed of 50km/h. What is the ground speed of the plane and what direction is it headed?

Thank you for your help :)
