Given CO (g) + H2O (g) <=> CO2 (g) + H2 (g)

At a given temperature, Kp= 2.7. If 0.13 mol of CO, 0.56 mol ofH2O, 0.62 mol of CO2, and 0.43 mol of H2 are put into a 2.5 Lflask, in which direction does the reaction proceed?

I tried finding the partial pressures by mol fraction= mol x/ moltotal and then solving for Kp.
is this the correct method or do I just use the moles given as themole fraction? Example: is the mole fraction of CO in this problem0.13 mol CO / mol total = 0.74, or is the mole fraction just theamount of moles given in the question, 0.13 mol? Any help isappreciated.
