Approx. 0.1*mol*L^-1......................

Explanation:

We use the quotient....."Molarity"-="Moles of solute"/"Volume of solution", and we know that 1*cm^3-=1*mL-=10^-3*L......

And thus "Molarity"=((5.95*g)/(119.0*g*mol^-1))/(400*cm^3xx10^-3*L*cm^-3)

=0.125*mol*L^-1 with respect to KBr. What are the concentrations with respect to K^+ and Br^-? Are the units I use correct?
