Detailed Solution

We proceed from left to right, iron (III) means Fe3+, hexacyano means 6CN ions are present and ferrate (II) means Fe2+ is the central metal atom. 

So, the complex ion is [Fe(CN)6​]4− and the counter ion is Fe3+. So, after balancing the charge, the formula becomes Fe4​[Fe(CN)6​]3.
