Hey Student..
As per what is required in this question, you need to take into account the basics of general oxidation states. As for example O has -2, H as +1, Fe as +2 or +3 according to the ligands so present..
just take into account this hint and try calculating the oxidation state..

THE ANSWER IS  FeCrO4  SINCE THE OXIDATION STATE OF FE=+2,
CR =x, O=-2
THEN  (+2)+(x)+4(-2)=0
          x-6=0
         x=6
 
THERE FORE OXIDATION STATE OF  CR  =6   IN FeCrO4
     HENCE PROVED . THANK YOU
