What equation will I need for this problem?

A 3kg soccer ball is rolling with a kinetic energy of 1800 J. It reaches a ramp and rolls up the ramp until it comes to a stop momentarily. What is the maximum height of the ball on the ramp?

The formulas you will need are:

                   Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed)² .
and
                   Potential energy = (mass) (gravity) (height) .

And of course,

                   Total energy = constant .
