4 CH3NO2 + 7 O2 = 4 CO2 + 6 H2O + 4 NO2

There you go, you just have to do it like Bekk said, make everything on the right side equal to the left side, an important rule is that you only may put numbers BEFORE the molecules. For example you want 2 of the Na groups, then you have to put it like 2Na and not Na2.
