Atomic mass of potassium is 39 g.
In a BCC unit cell, there are 8 atoms at the corner of a cube and 1 atom at the centre.
Number of atom per unit cell = 
8 x 1/8 + 1 x 1 = 2 
Number of atoms in 4.0 g of potassium = 4/39 x 6.02 x 1023  
Number of unit cells in 4.0 g of potassium = 4/39 x 6.02 x 1023/2  = 3.09 x 1022 unit cells
