In the reaction Fe^2O^3+3CO->2FE+3CO^2, what is the total number of moles of CO used to produce 112 grams of iron?

Please explain step by step how to do this problem, thanks:)

how many moles Fe in 112g?
each 2 moles of Fe uses 3 moles CO

Generally, "^" are not used in molecular formulas. Better would be

Fe2O3+3CO->2Fe+3CO2
