    Actually, it's Al2Br6 + Cl2. Remember that Al is always trivalent. Bromide and chloride are, of course, monovalent. You can Google these if you don't know.

    Check the aluminums. If you have more on the left, multiply the Al component on the Right by some small number.
    Check the bromines. Again multiply the Br component on the right. You've already balanced Al on the left so if you decide to multiply Al2Br6, you'll also have to change the right side.
    Do the same with chlorines.
