@ harini 
same way u have to use to find out the coordination no of a complex . 
on your frst ques – 
the central atom will be Mn , and this compound is  A binuclear carbonyl compound , 
so, the coordination no will be 6 here , 
in the 2nd ques, 
the coordination no will be 8. 
HOPE IT CLEARS 
ALL THE BEST ..
