The correct relation is
I = Δq / Δt
(Current = charge transported per unit time).
For an instantaneous current use the derivative:
I(t) = dq/dt.
Units: coulombs per second = amperes (C/s = A). The other expression I = t / Δq is incorrect (wrong dimensions). Example: 6 C through a wire in 2 s gives I = 6/2 = 3 A.
