Answer: A. Magnetic Seperation, Addition of Water, Dissolving salt, filtration, evaporation.

To remove the iron fillings we would use magnetic separation then we would add water to the mixture and stir it until the salt is dissolved then we would use filtration to remove the sawdust. Now finally we will evaporate the mixture and then we would get the salt.
