Calculate the number of moles of camp that are produced

Problem- Assume that the binding of one molecule of epinephrine to a seven-transmembrane helix (7TM) receptor (also called the G protein-coupled receptor, or GPCR) results in the activation of 2.0*10^2 GÎ± subunits. In addition, suppose that each activated adenylyl cyclase catalyzes the conversion of 40 ATP molecules to cAMP per second. (Assume that each G protein activates a single unique adenylyl cyclase.) Calculate the number of moles of cAMP that are produced per second.

Please illustrate work and walk me during the problem so that I can follow and understand it.
