Within each half-reaction, the charge on each side must be balanced, as well as the number of each element.

For the overall oxidation-reduction reaction, the charge on each side must be the same, as well as the number of each element, and no free electrons should be in the equation.

If I could understand the break down of that question, I might be able to interprate but not answer it.
