You have no units on the specific heat of Fe.
heat lost by Fe + heat gained by water = 0
[mass Fe x specific heat Fe x (Tfinal-Tinitial)] + [mass H2O x specific heat H2O x (Tfinal-Tinitial)] = 0
Substitute the numbers and solve for mass Fe.
heat lost by Fe + heat gained by water = 0
[mass Fe x specific heat Fe x (Tfinal-Tinitial)] + [mass H2O x specific heat H2O x (Tfinal-Tinitial)] = 0
Substitute the numbers and solve for mass Fe.
